Reactions of the Mail, Express and Sun to yesterday's court decision on brexit:
The Mail's front page has a picture of the three high court judges with the headline "Enemies of the people". One judge is criticised for being "openly gay".
The Express says this is the UK's greatest crisis since the Second World War.
The Sun (proprietor: R Murdoch) takes to task the "foreign elites" who brought the case. Because their readers are less likely to approve of attacks on white pensioners (the other claimant), they focus their attack on the non-white woman claimant.
The Mail is the most problematic IMO; attacking the judiciary is another step on the road to facism.
How can we have any reasonable political debate in this environment?
