Is The Sun newspaper starting to pivot towards supporting Keir Starmer? Will any of the rest of the Tory press follow suit? And does political endorsement from a newspaper even matter any more? Plus, double outrage as shadow chancellor Rachel Reeves acknowledges that Margaret Thatcher was, you know, quite a big deal. Was she right to do so and why can't we stay level-headed around the Iron Lady?

• “I think there’s an acknowledgment from the papers that you can’t ignore Labour anymore.” – Rachel Cunliffe
• “Any papers who don’t want to back Labour just won’t back ANYONE…” – Hugo Rifkind
• “The Thatcher of now might be hosting a TV show on GB News, who knows?” – Hugo Rifkind
