Newspaper headlines: '£39bn new build' and 'jobs slump' Newspaper headlines: '£39bn new build' and 'jobs slump'
(about 16 hours later)
Today's Spending Review leads several newspapers, with the chancellor's £39bn "affordable homes drive" fronting the Financial Times. The money is "the biggest boost to social and affordable housing in a generation", according to the Treasury. Shadow Chancellor Mel Stride says the plan would increase debt, and means tax rises in the autumn are "inevitable".
The i Paper also leads with the chancellor's plans for a programme to boost social and affordable homes for 10 years instead of five years, calling it a "win" for the Deputy PM Angela Rayner. The front page also reports on a poll that suggests Reform UK leader Nigel Farage is "slightly more trusted" on the economy than Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer.
The chancellor's "£39 billion new build" also fronts the Daily Mirror, which Rachel Reeves says will "turn the tide" on an affordable housing crisis.
The Times reports that, even with a boost of £30bn at the Spending Review, the NHS "will not come close" to hitting waiting list targets. Citing officials, it says Prime Minister Sir Keir's goal of treating 92% of patients within 18 weeks is achievable "only by using implausible and overly optimistic assumptions".
The chancellor has been "rocked" by a "jobs slump" ahead of the Spending Review, the Daily Mail reports. As Rachel Reeves prepares "to take a gamble on the nation's finances with a giant spending spree", the paper cites figures that show 250,000 jobs "have gone" since her Budget last year.
Government plans to decriminalise rough sleeping leads the Daily Telegraph. Deputy Prime Minister Ms Rayner says repealing the 200-year-old law by next spring would "draw a line under nearly two centuries of injustice". But the paper reports the move "raises the prospect of homeless people being able to camp freely on city streets".
Images of police responding to the attack in Austria feature in the top bar of the Daily Express's front page. But the paper leads with a call for Rachel Reeves to also "scrap the rural inheritance raid" - the changes to inheritance tax she announced last year - after she made a U-turn on scrapping winter fuel payments for pensioners.
The "revenge massacre" at an Austrian school which left 11 dead - including the suspect - leads the Metro. The paper reports that the 21-year-old suspect "claimed he had been bullied and failed to graduate from the school".
Swedish climate campaigner Greta Thunberg speaking after her detention by Israeli authorities is the top photo for the Guardian. The paper leads with sanctions imposed by the UK government on two Israeli ministers for "inciting violence against Palestinians". The report adds that other countries - including Australia, Canada, New Zealand and Norway - have taken similar action.
"Anyone got a spare jet?" asks the Sun, which reports that the Red Arrows fleet is "running out of planes".
An "Area 51 cover-up" fronts the Daily Star, which reports that the US military has been accused of spreading misnformation to make people think weapon tests were aliens. According to a newly revealed Department of Defense review, a retired Pentagon chief planted alien evidence to disguise secret weapons tests, the paper reports.
