Daily Mirror - Can’t afford a sandwich? Hard cheese

Summary of the front page

The Daily Mirror leads with a claim from former Tory minister Ann Widdecombe, who says nobody has a right to cheap food. The paper brands her “another out-of-touch politician” after she remarked that struggling families should stop making cheese sandwiches to cut back on rising food costs. 

One expert told the paper that “ordinary people are sick of being told how to get by on next to nothing by wealthy politicians who have never known true poverty”. 

The Princess of Wales smiling in her sunshine-yellow blazer also features on the front page, with the royal compared to fictional holiday camp worker Gladys Pugh from hit sitcom Hi-De-Hi.
