“Shocking hypocrisy of Labour” and Wallace whistleblower

The headline in the Mail on Sunday reads: Minister's winter fuel heating bill is being paid by you

A wide variety of stories compete for attention on the Sunday front.

The Sunday Mirror headline reads: Families agonize as missing persons rise

The first day of Advent is the perfect time for the Sunday Mirror to launch its own charity Christmas appeal, highlighting the large number of families across the UK who are facing the festive season without their loved ones. The paper reports that more than 75,000 children were reported missing in a 12-month period and “the crisis has inspired our Christmas appeal”, which will donate funds to a charity which aims to reconnect people.

The headline in the Sunday Telegraph reads: We blew Wallace but nothing was done

The Sunday Telegraph leads the way with new allegations about TV presenter Gregg Wallace. Under the headline “We blew Wallace, but nothing was done,” the paper talks to a former producer who worked with Wallace on the show Eat Well For Less. She says her concerns about his “inappropriate” behavior were “ignored.” Wallace’s lawyers say it is completely false that he is engaging in sexual harassment. The image featured prominently alongside that report shows a Syrian rebel waving a flag victoriously near the steps of the Citadel in the ancient city of Aleppo, marking the rebel forces that have taken control of the city.

The Sunday Times headline reads: Dead bill puts pressure on courts and NHS

The headline in the Sun says: Corrie sacked me for a sexual lie

The headline in the Daily Star reads: The cursed picture is at it again

The story of a ‘spine-chilling’ portrait leads the front page of the Daily Star on Sunday. It is reported that the painting – which had three previous owners who returned it to a charity shop after ghostly events – now haunts its new owners at a tourist attraction, but for the safety of any unwitting front-page browsers, the paper is hiding the location up to page five.
