Sir

The Sunday Times leads on its interview with the Prime Minister, saying he vowed to fight and win the next general election. The paper describes Sir Keir Starmer as “defiant”, with Labour expecting to suffer heavy losses in elections next month. Separately, the paper notes, allies of the mayor of Greater Manchester, Andy Burnham, are continuing efforts to secure him a route back to Parliament, potentially paving the way for a leadership challenge.

SIR Paul McCartney got a social media platform ban — for supposedly breaking the rules on his own fan page.

The Beatles legend, 83, joined a Reddit forum to send photos from his no-phones-allowed gig that took place in Los Angeles last Friday.

But his official account on the site was taken down by moderators who thought it was spam — sparking fury from fans.

It is thought Sir Paul’s media team was posting on his behalf.

A message, alongside a link to photos, said: “We wanted to make sure you had memories from the show to share with friends, family and loved ones.”

It was the first time since 2020 that the account of the former Wings frontman, who composed classic 1973 album Band on the Run, had been used.

But hours later, a message on his u/paulmccartney profile said: “Paul McCartney has been banned.”

One fan on the forum declared: “What clownery is going on here that Paul McCartney himself gets banned? I wanted to see the photos but now I can’t.”

The account has since been allowed back on Reddit — but with the photos message still deleted.

It is unclear why he got the boot in the first place.

The forum warns there must be no advertising on its list of rules. Reddit also has a zero-tolerance policy towards spam, banning things judged as responsible for “artificially inflating exposure to unwanted or irrelevant content”.

Sir Paul, who also played the Fonda Theatre venue on Saturday, releases his 19th solo studio album, The Boys of Dungeon Lane, in May.
