30.12.2025 โข The Day of the Eurostar Suspension
โจMorning coverage was dominated by the release of the New Year Honours list, with editors contrasting the knighthood of Idris Elba and Matt Lucasโs inclusion with the snub of David Walliams. Concurrently, tabloids intensified their reporting on Anthony Joshuaโs condition following his car crash in Nigeria, transitioning from yesterdayโs initial accident reports to graphic details of internal injuries and the psychological trauma of losing two close friends.
By midday, editorial priority shifted abruptly to the total suspension of Eurostar services. Broadsheets and news sites tracked the escalating chaos at St Pancras caused by a Channel Tunnel power failure, which eventually led to the cancellation of all trains. Simultaneously, right-leaning outlets focused on the potential revocation of Alaa Abd el-Fattah's British citizenship following a backlash over his rhetoric.
Evening reporting converged on geopolitical escalations as Russia moved nuclear-capable missiles into Belarus. This was juxtaposed with news of the death of Tatiana Schlossberg, granddaughter of JFK, while Eurostar passengers were advised to abandon New Year travel plans.
