Paper Monitor

13:17 UK time, Wednesday, 14 November 2012

A service highlighting the riches of the daily press.

Paper Monitor couldn't help but chuckle at the coverage of David Cameron's wardrobe malfunction in the papers today.

It was a, says the Daily Telegraph, when the PM's shirt "popped open" during the aptly named Lord Mayor's Banquet, where he was due to give a speech.

"He had come to expand on Britain's role in world trade. But ended up revealing more than his plans to boost British exports," it says.

However although Mr Cameron "briefly exposed his chest" the paper praises his quick recovery, when he "refastened the mother of pearl studs on his formal white-tie shirt".

The Daily Mail is less forgiving, if more tongue-in-cheek.

is its headline.

Meanwhile in other stomach matters, the Telegraph also reports the tale of a pub landlord that was "saved by his beer belly".

It says a 22-stone publican escaped serious injury after he was run down by drug dealers in his car park because his stomach cushioned the impact from his vital organs.

Now there is no suggestion that Paper Monitor has a paunch, but it's time for lunch.
