'Andrew should give evidence' and Reeves discusses Budget
Sir Keir has "heaped pressure" on Andrew to testify in the US, is the Daily Mail's assessment. Sir Keir - who was asked about the former prince while attending the G20 summit - told reporters it was "a decision for him". But, he added, "my general position is if you have relevant information you should be prepared to share it".The prime minister's comments about Andrew also feature on the front page of the Sunday Times, but the paper leads with preparations by the chancellor to "end the two-child benefit cap" in her upcoming Budget. Writing in the paper, Rachel Reeves says "fiscal restraint is a Labour value and necessary to curb inflation".An exclusive interview with Reeves is the lead for the Sunday Mirror, in which she says "helping families is her top priority" at Wednesday's Budget. In the interview, Reeves promises to "tackle the cost-of-living crisis", "cut NHS waiting lists" and "reduce the national debt".Green Party leader Zack Polanski's "hopes for Britain" lead this week's Observer. Polanski tells the paper in his vision for a "green land", the UK would "leave Nato", "tax the rich" and "welcome migrants".The Sunday Telegraph reports on US President Donald Trump saying a US plan to end the Russia-Ukraine war is not his "final offer" for Kyiv, after Ukrainian allies voiced concerns over proposals. A large image, alongside the article, shows Ukraine's Volodymyr Zelensky and his wife Olena outside a cathedral in the Ukrainian capital.In other news, defence chiefs are considering a greater use of "fat jabs" in the military, the Sunday Express reports. Fighter pilots face strict weight limits so they can safely eject from aircraft - and obesity is becoming "common", according to RAF medical professionals.The Daily Star's main story is about crime - specifically, the number of people sent to jail for shoplifting being "at its highest level in years". "More must be done to end the epidemic", according to experts cited in the paper, which notes that more than 12,000 thieves were jailed last year.Finally, the Independent reports that the prime minister backs the paper's campaign to raise money for the SafeCall service to help missing children.
