Description

We read the papers so you don’t have to… Today: The papers can’t name the star allegedly involved in the BBC sex pictures scandal – so they’re putting the boot into the Beeb anyway. Are YOU an energy vampire? Does Keir Starmer really “hate tree-huggers”? And our #FixTheHeadline competition sweeps the nation.
Miranda Sawyer gorges on the buffet of news with comedian and former forensic investigator (really!) Ria Lina and New Statesman columnist Marie le Conte.
