Times up for Tories? Polls open – Tinfoil tents! Inside Glasto for conspiracy theorists – Could you live in Britain’s smelliest village?

Paper Cuts

We read the papers so you don’t have to. Today: Pick your player. It’s election day (don’t forget your ID) and the papers are picking teams. Even The Sun! It’s all gone a bit Pete Tong. The Times attends a conspiracy theory festival – at least that's what they want you to think. Plus – Smells fishy. The Telegraph investigates the most pungent village in Britain.

Alex Von Tunzelmann is joined by journalist Holly Thomas and stand up comedian Stuart McPherson.
