'RAF jet crash escape' and'Tories to cut benefits' Image caption, The moment two RAF pilots ejected from a jet is splashed across the front page of the Daily Mirror, which says it is a miracle nobody was killed in the incident. The two pilots were taking part in a training exercise in Anglesey when they were forced to parachute from the plane, which the paper reports then plummeted nose-first into a field and caused a huge fireball.

The Times declares Tories to cut benefits for long-term unemployed, and includes quotes from party leader Kemi Badenoch, who says she plans to stop joblessness being a lifestyle choice for those who can't be bothered.
