The Daily Express celebrated a job ‘boom’ among the over 65s on its front cover today as more people delay retirement.

Office for National Statistics figures suggest that by 2030 people aged 65 and over will account for 282,000 new UK employees out of a total 546,000.

The Express celebrated the boom, although others have been quick to point out that it really constitutes a delay to retirement which increasing numbers of people are unable to afford.

Vegan boom

The Times splashes “the president of Cyprus is under increasing pressure to intervene in the case of a British teenager convicted of lying about being gang raped”.

It also points to a vegan boom, with sales of beef and pork plunging.

Devastating bushfires in Australia are splashed by The Guardian which uses a picture of a kangaroo fleeing a fire.

The Independent leads with a story saying there has been a “surge in slavery victims left in Home Office limbo”.

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
