Paper Cuts Why does Sue Gray get paid more than Starmer? – Class Act! Badenoch’s McDonald's revelation – The rise of fast food fashion
We read the papers so you don’t have to. Today: Shades of Gray. Starmer’s top spad is making bank, and the Daily Mail is livid. Second class citizens.

The Independent does a deep dive on the fast food fashion trend.
Alex von Tunzelmann is joined by the journalist Holly Thomas and comedian Jacob Hawley.
