A variety of politics and crime stories dominate the headlines on Sunday, with the tabloids taking a look at Brian Sheehan, the getaway driver jailed for the murder of journalist Veronica Guerin.

The Sunday Independent looks at the low support for Fine Gael, and how a review to increase its popularity is currently underway. The latest Sunday Independent polls shows the party at 17 per cent popularity - the lowest since 2016.

 

The Irish Sunday Mirror leads with Brian Meehan, jailed for the murder of journalist Veronica Guerin, who has applied for temporary release from prison to spend time with his family for the first time in 26 years.

The Peter McVerry Trust, a charity that has been ridden with controversies, spent €172,000 on renting out a derelict house instead of using the money to help the homeless, an investigation by The Irish Mail on Sunday reveals.

The Sunday World tracked down Brian Meehan on one of his days out from the open prison at Ilac shopping centre, where he reportedly refused to apologise for his role in the murder of journalist Veronica Guerin.

The Business Post looks at housing targets at risk in Dublin, as well as an AIB crackdown on hybrid working.
