The insane life of Tom Cruise’s new Russian girlfriend – plus, Rwanda Rishi’s close shave

We read the papers so you don’t have to. Today: They think it’s all over. It is… for now. Sunak narrowly survives Tory Rwanda rebellion and the papers are surprised. Mission Improbable. Tom Cruise is dating a high-maintenance Russian lady and we’re big fans of her preposterous life. Plus – Fear the Feline. The Guardian proves once and for all that cats are evil.

Miranda Sawyer is joined by journalist Jonn Elledge of the New Statesman and Dead Ringers regular Jan Ravens.
