As the war in Ukraine continues to dominate the front pages, The Metro addresses Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, telling him “Hear, hear, hero” following his speech to the House Of Commons. The paper says Mr Zelensky, who spoke to MPs from Kyiv, echoed Winston Churchill after he insisted he and his country would never surrender.

The Scotsman devotes its front page to the standing ovation afforded to President Zelensky after a speech which it says reduced MPs to tears. The paper also features a call from a leading energy expert for more oil and gas development in the North Sea to protect supplies following the ban on Russian oil.

The Scottish Daily Mail contrasts President Zelensky, who it calls a “Commons Hero”, with former House Speaker John Bercow, who it dubs a “Commons Zero”. It comes after a parliamentary report into Bercow’s conduct during his time as Speaker concluded that he was a “serial bully” and a “serial liar”.
