Are the Nazis back? – Blake vs. Baldoni! Inside the Hollywood scandal! – Secret diaries of a Tory enforcer

Paper Cuts

We read the papers so you don’t have to. Today: The Guardian is reeling from the results of the German election. Jonn walks us through the outcome and explains why the Nazis aren’t back—yet. We’ve brought in Gráinne to break down why the tabloids are obsessed with Blake Lively’s Hollywood legal clash with director Justin Baldoni. Plus, The Times has published excerpts from a former chief Tory whip, and Miranda loves the backbench gossip.

Miranda Sawyer is joined by journalist and King of the YIMBYs Jonn Elledge and comedian Gráinne Maguire.
