Newspaper headlines: Murder teens 'show no remorse' and 'surprise fall in inflation'

Emotional statements from murdered teen Brianna Ghey's mother and father feature across many of Thursday's front pages

The face of 16-year-old Brianna Ghey, who was murdered by two teenagers, is on many of Thursday's front pages following their guilty verdicts. "What they did to our beautiful Brianna will haunt us forever," says the Daily Mail, one of several papers to cover the reaction of her parents. In the Daily Express they say "their house feels empty without her laughter", and in the Daily Mirror "they will never stop loving her".

Lower than expected inflation figures prompt Tthe Times to speculate that interest rates may fall in February. The i believes tax cuts may follow next year. According to the Financial Times, market analysts believe interest rates will drop by almost 1.5% in 2024. The business section of the Daily Telegraph says economists have warned that the Bank of England's "insistence on keeping interest rates higher for longer is looking increasingly absurd", and that the Bank's decisions "risk needlessly tipping the economy into recession". The Daily Express says it would not trust the governor of the Bank of England, Andrew Bailey, "to forecast Christmas Day".

On its front page, Tthe Guardian reports that a single clause in a new criminal justice bill means the police will be able to run facial recognition searches on the database of Britain's 50 million driving licence holders. Academics warn that the government is sneaking the move in "under the radar", as the intention to allow the authorities to exploit driving licence records is not explicitly referenced in the bill or its explanatory notes. The newspaper says the Home Office has declined to comment.

The Times is among the papers to report on a bus lane in Manchester that has raised more than £10 million for the local council from fines for cars using it. Drivers straying into the lane, on Oxford Road, have resulted in more than 180,000 fines being issued since the start of 2020, according to a freedom of information request.

The Financial Times carries an interview with India's prime minister, Narendra Modi, who tells the paper he will "look into" any evidence of an alleged Indian assassination plot in the US, after the attempted killing of a Sikh man in New York. Mr Modi describes his country's relationship with the US as "broader in engagement, deeper in understanding, warmer in friendship than ever before", adding "our foremost guiding principle in foreign affairs is our national interest".

Many papers are running columns on Prince William's rumoured nickname "One Pint Willy"

Many papers devote column inches to the revelation that Prince William's nickname, at least according to his cousin Zara's husband, Mike Tindall, is One Pint Willy - such is his low tolerance for alcohol. The Times devotes part of its editorial to the news, saying it "is not exactly 'the Lionheart', or 'the Great' is it?" The paper concludes that One Pint Willy "is not an ideal nickname for the Prince of Wales".

Showbiz insiders tell Tthe Telegraph that standing ovations are now being given "at the drop of a hat" by theatre audiences. The paper says at least one cast member has recently felt awkward acknowledging what they felt was a "disproportionate response". An etiquette expert from Debrett's sniffily dismisses the trend as coming from across the pond, saying US audiences are "much more voluble and noisily appreciative... this tendency has gradually spread to British audiences".
