    The Telegraph and farmers lead Budget outrage – Trump sues TV channel, Biden bites baby – The pros and cons of “sleep divorce”
    Nov 1 2024
    We read the papers so you don’t have to. The budget has made all the right-leaning papers angry, with the Telegraph uniting with farmers in a rage-a-thon. Trump wants to sue a TV Channel for $10 billion, as he continues to live in his Dr. Evil era. And do you share a bed with your partner? If you do, it might be hurting your relationship more than it helps. Jacob Jarvis is joined by Jacob Hawley and Ava Santina.

Because paper reviews should always be funny.

It's only a few weeks old but Paper Cuts is now a regular fixture for me. Brilliant.

Love it

Brilliant way to reading the front pages with a comical twist. I recommend if you had enough of the blatant bias of the Uk media
