Newspaper headlines: 'Survival' and 'floundering' in election debate

Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn"floundered" over his stance on a second EU referendum during a"bruising" televised showdown with Prime Minister Boris Johnson, the Daily Mail reports. It says the live studio audience"ridiculed" him as he"ducked a string of questions" on the issue.That sentiment is echoed in the Daily Express's splash, which says the prime minister"tore into" Mr Corbyn in a debate that"ignited" that campaign.

Also quoting the YouGov poll, the Times puts the two party leaders"neck and neck". It leads on Mr Corbyn's refusal to say which side he would back in a second referendum but credits him for landing"a series of blows" on Mr Johnson, specifically concerning the NHS.Politics aside, the fallout from the Duke of York's Newsnight interview continues to make some front pages.
