Paper Monitor

13:32 UK time, Monday, 23 January 2012

A service highlighting the riches of the daily press.

Front-page studies pt one:

There's a lovely teaser on the front of the Daily Telegraph today.

It says, "We want our chips in a tower, say MPs".

How could you not turn to page three? There you encounter a pleasing tale of the complaints made by people dining in the House of Commons.

Back onto the Telegraph front and they make a most uncharacteristic decision. There's a massive picture of playwright Tom Stoppard, accompanied by the bombshell that he does not possess a computer or "Twitter machine".

Yet on page two, there is a much smaller picture of model Lisa Snowdon celebrating her 40th birthday in a red dress slashed to the thigh. Surely they have got them the wrong way round.

Or perhaps it's just that she was wearing red?

Anyway there's a very Telegraph biscuity base to the bottom of their front page. "Nearly 700,000 middle class families are to be stripped of child benefit in just over a year's time."

Alongside is a story saying the UK has had one of the mildest winters ever.

Just below is an advert for the Sandals holiday chain with the slogan "Luxury included".

Interesting juxtaposition.
