Badenoch on Wednesday night signalled a “tough new Tory approach to immigration as she declared: Britain is not a hotel – it’s our home”, writes the Mail. She said it was time to stop being “squeamish” about the negative impacts of mass immigration and act to halt it, in her first major speech as Conservative Party leader, the paper adds.

The paper says the scale of the criminality would make Al Fayed, who died last year aged 94, one of Britain’s “most notorious sex offenders, and raises urgent questions about how he got away with his crimes”. The paper also shows an image of Lebanese people returning south after the ceasefire between Hezbollah and Israel came into effect on Wednesday.

Lord Cameron has revealed he has changed his mind and now supports a bill to legalise assisted dying, arguing that it will help bring about a “meaningful reduction in human suffering”, according to the Times. Writing in the paper, the former prime minister says that he previously opposed changing the law because he feared that “vulnerable people could be pressurised into hastening their own deaths”.

The headline in the i paper reads: "Prisoner early release 'puts public at risk' from violent sex offenders"

The chief inspector of probation has issued a “stark warning” that the decision to release thousands of prisoners early will lead to a “rise in serious reoffending”, the i newspaper says. Martin Jones tells the paper that it is “inevitable” that some of the 2,800 inmates released from jail will go on to commit “violent, sexual or domestic abuse offences”.

The headline in the Financial Times reads: "Doubts over Barnier's future prompt sell-off in French bonds and stock"

The lead story in the Financial Times says French sovereign bonds and stocks fell on Wednesday as concerns “intensified” that a dispute over a draft budget containing €60bn of cuts and tax rises might “bring down” Michel Barnier’s government.
