They left it late but the Daily Star’s front page on Boris Johnson at the Covid inquiry just won front page of the year
The Daily Star’s front pages came into their own during Covid and, with the pandemic inquiry now in full swing, the paper’s political splashes are once again nearing God-tier status.
And today it might just have won front page of the year, or something close.

While most of the client journos do Johnson bidding by burying him on the inside pages or pretending he apologised, hats off @dailystar Covid inquiry discussed in @RestIsPolitics Q and A along with so much else https://t.co/ieQTcj6vQh pic.twitter.com/B1MlKjPWA0
