Madeleine McCann dominates front pages as Black Lives Matter protests get snubbed

Madeleine McCann has returned to the nation’s front pages following a new revelation by German police.

The Daily Mail, The Sun and the i all lead with the news that a German child sex offender is the prime suspect in the 13-year-old case.

It comes as thousands of people joined a protest in London over the death of African-American George Floyd in US police custody nine days ago, news which was largely swept under the carpet in the press.
