Many of the papers look ahead to the prime minister's keynote speech at the Labour Party conference in Manchester.

The Guardian says a defiant Gordon Brown will use this as his chance to try to shut up Labour rebels who have been calling for him to be removed as leader.

The paper claims the prime minister won't directly attack them, but will instead try to show that he has the grit, intellect and grasp of the future to take the party to a fourth term in office.

He is expected to talk about Labour's future police and his plans to steer Britain through the current climate of global financial turmoil.

'Job swap'

The Sun reports Mr Brown's message is no one can rival him and claims there are plans for a Cabinet reshuffle.

It suggests David Miliband and Alistair Darling could even be swapping jobs at the Foreign Office and the Treasury.

The Daily Star has its own take on the prime minister's mindset and reckons Mr Brown had the conference platform decked out in purple especially because of the colour's regal associations.

There is also coverage of Alistair Darling's attack on the culture of big bonuses - a tune of the past and a play to the left, says the Independent.

In an editorial, the Daily Mail contends hard-working Britons are sick of "obscene bonuses" paid for no reason to City speculators.

The Financial Times stays on the theme of stocks and shares. It argues the US Treasury needs to come up with ways of injecting new capital into the banking system and the American economy is still rather fragile.

And the Independent discusses the ethical dilemmas of using a fake £1 coin after it was revealed that one in every 50 in circulation is counterfeit.

Organised crime gangs are believed to be behind the increase with blank coins originating in Italy and Eastern Europe.

The paper also prints a guide on how to spot the illegal currency.

Tragic deaths

Most of the papers have covered the start of the inquest into the shooting of Jean Charles de Menezes by police marksmen three years ago.

Firearms officers mistook him for a suspected bomber when they killed him.

The Daily Mail highlights the key questions that the coroner is expected to ask during the next three months.

Meanwhile, the Daily Mirror and the Sun have published pictures of young sisters Ellie and Isobel Cass, believed to have been suffocated by their father, David.

He killed himself after telling the girls' mother Kerrie Hughes: "The babies have gone to sleep forever".

Living costs

The Daily Telegraph has news for members of the middle class who are drawing a pension.

It says under certain new insurance schemes, those living in affluent areas will get smaller retirement payments because they are expected to live longer.

The Daily Express stays on the theme of money and warns the price of bread and butter has gone up by a staggering 43%.

But the Times says ministers are poised to lift the ban on NHS patients paying for private top-up treatments.
