The British front pages are all discussing the 2025 murder of Henry Nowak. The Mirror explains that the 18-year-old student was handcuffed after his killer falsely claimed that Nowak had racially assaulted him. The Telegraph says that diversity, equity and inclusion guidelines are to blame for Nowak's death. The Guardian says that politicians have called for calm amid fears "the populist right are using the case to whip up racist resentment against minority ethnic Britons". A column by John Crace in the Guardian suggests that Nigel Farage's comments are a last resort, as he is increasingly losing support. Trump's latest political appointment has caused quite a stir. NBC reports that Donald Trump has named Bill Pulte as acting director of national intelligence, making him the highest-ranking US intelligence official. The Washington Post's editorial board says that it is a terrible choice, calling Pulte a "partisan sycophant" who has none of the expertise required. The Atlantic says that he has a demonstrated history of using sensitive government data for political retribution. Next, The Times reveals that leaked documents show a Chinese state-linked tech company is using artificial intelligence and internet control systems to predict who might become a dissident. The company is using AI to "analyse data covering individuals' daily habits, travel, relationships and browsing history". Finally, The Times investigates the fashion head-to-head between the French and English World Cup squads.
