It's been a night of some fresh changes and first times, there was the strangeness of no planes flying for the first time from natural causes, the first live leaders debate in the UK and this morning I think this might be the first time Clegg appeared on so many front covers (I've got no memory of when he became leader the Lib Dems, I suspect this is bigger news for the lib dems).
Checking out the front pages on Politics home there's clear pattern of Clegg and oh noes volcanic ash. Plus one picture of a politician dancing.
The Daily Telegraph: 'Clegg star rises in great TV showdown' pictured with volcanic smoke plume.
The Independent: 'Clegg comes of age: Cameron and Brown find themselves eclipsed by Liberal Democrat leader in historic television debate.' Pictures of all three leaders, wordy reference to the volcano ash?
Daily Mirror: 'Day the skies stood still' and below that 'It's a Man vs Boys'
The Times: 'Enter the outsider' with a picture of Clegg in the foreground of Brown and Cameron looking at the top middle distance.
The Guardian: 'Clegg the outside seizes his moment in the TV spotlight' and a big banner picture of a plane.
The Sun: 'We're all paralysed by Hot Air: Leaders clash as jets grounded by ash' kinda on both stories, seems to like the hot ash more.
Daily Mail: 'Paralysed by the Volcano' no mention what so ever of the debates, but hey free world war II in colour DVD. Jolly gosh omfg only 13 DVDS to collect.
Financial Times: Greece in key move towards bail-out' and 'Immigration is the battleground as leaders trade blows in TV clash' Picture is of Peter Mandelson ballroom dancing on the campaign trail yesterday.
