The penguin, meanwhile, stands there looking all very sad. The boy in the story, unnamed, finds a penguin on his doorstep and wonders where he comes from. It is a simple story about a boy and a penguin but the feelings it arouses are many there is pathos aplenty, a fear of being alone, wonderment, disappointment, determination and above all happiness and friendship. And thank goodness I didn't resist this one. The Daily Star splashes on Seamus the Irish wolfhound who will star in the Mall parade tomorrow at the King's coronation.I just can't resist a book with a penguin in it. The King is in a 'battle' to secure the monarchy's future, the i paper says, and also notes the disastrous day for the Tories.

The Guardian has splashed on a 'crushing result for Tories' in the local elections, with a picture of Sir Keir Starmer holding a baby - a classic of the election genre.

The Sun splashes on an exclusive report that Prince Harry will be seated three rows back at the coronation ceremony in the same line as his cousins Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie. The Daily Express also splashes entirely on the King's coronation. The Daily Telegraph relegates the disastrous Tory election results to a NIB at the bottom of the front page. King Charles III will fulfil his destiny when he becomes the 40th reigning monarch to be crowned at Westminster Abbey, The Times writes. The Financial Times is one of the few papers whose splash reflects the 'crushing' losses suffered by the Conservative Party in the local elections. The Daily Mail leads with an image of the King at his investiture as the Prince of Wales aged 20 in 1969. He will not only wear the crown he will bear the weight of history and the hopes of the nation, that's the Daily Mirror's take on the King's coronation tomorrow. The coronation was scheduled for just two days after the local elections, meaning that King Charles III bumps a disastrous day for the Tories off (most of) the front pages. It's been a huge day in politics, and you'd think that that would dominate the front pages, but it does not. We'll be back on Sunday morning to assess the results in full, and get all the reaction ahead of MPs returning to Westminster next week in the wake of these results. Thanks so much for staying with us for the local elections. With just two councils left to declare, here's where things stand at 11pm: Meanwhile, Labour and the Lib Dems both made huge gains across the country, while the Green Party also surged with some big wins, and majority control of one council. The Tories suffered results worse than their worst case scenario, losing control of councils across the country and losing more than 1,000 seats. It's been a huge day in politics today, with voters across much of England having their say at the ballot box after the chaos in national government in 2022.
