The Papers: 'Heat leaves Africa and Med in shade' and 'Can't cope without Catherine'

BBC

The launch of Andy Burnham's campaign for the Makerfield by-election features on several front pages.

The Daily Telegraph says if he becomes prime minister, he is set to bring in a land value tax, after he told the paper he believed land was "under-taxed". The Daily Mail also reports he vowed to overhaul the council tax system, saying the measure is "not justifiable" as it's based on property valuations from 1991, and introduce a land value levy. The Financial Times says bond markets have had their best performance in two and a half years, after Burnham said he'd stick to the government's self-imposed borrowing rules if he entered Number 10. A list of the candidates standing in the Makerfield by-election is available on the BBC News Website.

The Times leads on comments by the former Health Secretary, Alan Milburn, who said an entire generation of young people are being "trapped in worklessness" by the welfare system. Milburn tells the paper that almost one million 16-to-24 year olds are out of employment, education or training mainly because they've been "rewired" by social media, leading to mental ill-health. Milburn's interim report on the issue - commissioned by the government - is due to be published next week.

The Guardian focuses on the EU's rejection of a pitch by the UK government to create a single market for goods. It says the Cabinet official, Michael Ellam, presented the idea in order to deepen economic cooperation with the bloc, but instead officials in Brussels suggested the UK rejoin the European Economic Area and accept freedom of movement, which Sir Keir Starmer has said won't happen. The BBC reported that the government did not confirm the specifics of any conversations, but acknowledged that a range of options were put to the EU in recent months and conversations are ongoing.

Elsewhere on its front page, the Telegraph claims hundreds of pounds could be added to the cost of a staycation, as an "overnight visitor levy" could be imposed in some of England's favourite tourist destinations. The paper says leaders in places such as Whitby and Bamburgh Castle are considering introducing the tax. The government says how the tax would work is yet to be finalised.

And Judith Chalmers features on the front page of the Daily Star, after her death at 90 years old. Referencing the travel show she presented for almost 30 years, the paper says "wish you were still here, Judith".
