29.12.2025 โ‡ข The Day of the Anthony Joshua Crash
โŒจMorning coverage focused on the aftermath of the Mar-a-Lago summit, with broadsheets analyzing the 'thorny issues' of the Ukraine peace plan. Editors highlighted a shift in the proposed security guarantees from 60 days to 15 years, alongside domestic pressure on Keir Starmer regarding his engagement with an activist accused of extremist rhetoric.
By early afternoon, editorial priority pivoted sharply toward Nigeria following reports that boxer Anthony Joshua was injured in a fatal car crash. Initial breaking news transitioned into detailed accounts of the wreckage, with tabloids focusing on his 'narrow escape' while two companions were killed.
Evening reporting was dominated by the identification of the deceased as Joshua's close friends and his stable condition in a hospital. This celebrity tragedy largely displaced the geopolitical narrative of a Russian-alleged drone strike on Putinโ€™s residence, which Zelenskyy dismissed as a fabrication. The day concluded with the release of the New Year Honours list, featuring Idris Elba and Sarina Wiegman.
