Brexit takes a bit of a back seat in Wednesday’s papers with boardroom pay, climate change and the royal family featuring on the fronts.
The Times leads with a “new care scandal”, with a woman alleging Rotherham council gave her abuser the opportunity to meet her son. The paper reports serial rapist Arshid Hussain was contacted by social workers in prison “to give him the chance to stake a claim in the boy’s future”.
