Gallery: 'Bye-Bye England' - how the world's press saw the EU deal

There were some, er, strong views on show in the British and German media…

YESTERDAY’S LANDMARK EU deal hit newspaper front pages around the world this morning – with a number of radically different views on show.

Several of the biggest-selling newspapers in Britain hailed Cameron’s decision to wield a veto and keep the UK out of the agreement – with the Sun comparing him to Winston Churchill.

Meanwhile, their counterparts in Germany were equally unrestrained. The country’s bestselling tabloid Das Bild summed it up with its headline “Bye Bye England”.

Here’s our roundup of how the world’s press viewed the deal:
