Papers worried by Madeleine search

Version 0 of 1.

A bleak assessment of the search for Madeleine McCann is revealed in several of Monday's newspapers.

The Sun quotes a Portuguese police inspector admitting that his team do not have a single lead.

The Daily Telegraph takes a similar line, saying the police are back at "square one."

And the Mirror's front page is dominated by its news that Gerry and Kate McCann have vowed to stay in Portugal until their daughter is found.

GPs and prisoners

Two groups of people are costing the state too much money - prisoners and GPs, according to the papers.

The Mail says Gordon Brown is to call on GPs to improve the services they offer out-of-hours or take a pay cut.

And while doctors earn six-figure salaries, prisoners are even more expensive, say the Express and the Sun.

Government figures reveal that since the start of the year, 77 inmates had been held in court cells that are more expensive than a suite at The Ritz.

Smoking bans

Smokers will be banned from lighting up in church and could be stopped from smoking in the car, some papers say.

According to the Mirror and the Daily Star, road safety campaigners say motorists take their hands off the wheel and become distracted when they light up.

As a consequence they want drivers to be fined for smoking.

And the Telegraph says senior clerics are "fuming" over regulations that require them to display "no smoking" signs at the entrances of churches.

Depression

The mental health of the country has been met with concern from the Times.

Under the headline, "Britain becomes a Prozac nation" it says the number of prescriptions for anti-depressants reached a record last year of 31m.

But the Daily Telegraph reports that for people who are depressed, a walk in the country may be more effective than taking pills.

It says the first study into so-called "eco-therapy" has found that it can cut depression in more than 70% of people.
