Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has ordered an "economic reset" in response to Donald Trump's tariff "blitz," according to the Observer. Quoting allies of the PM, the paper suggests taxes may rise again or the "ironclad" fiscal rules may be bent to allow more borrowing to boost economic growth - as a recession looms.

The front of the Sunday Telegraph

The Sunday Telegraph headlines on Sir Keir's pledge to shelter the UK from a "tariffs storm". Writing in the paper, the PM pledges to "do everything necessary" to defend the national interest. Elsewhere on the front is Norris's arrest and a story about Suella Braverman, among other senior Conservatives calling for the release of a woman jailed for a social media comment made in the wake of the Southport murders.

The Mail leads on the arrest of Labour MP Dan Norris, who was taken into custody on suspicion of rape, child sex offences, child abduction and misconduct in public office. Sir Keir has been "rocked" by the probe the paper reports, and Mr Norris has been suspended from the party.

In other news, the Sun splashes on Strictly Come Dancing judge Craig Revel Horwood's "barb-tongued" comments about other panellists on the BBC show. "There is no other judge," he is quoted as saying to a live audience. "The others are dead or sacked." Murder on the dance floor indeed...
