The Sun – which first reported his departure – says it has left Prime Minister Boris Johnson facing a "massive new headache".
The Guardian says Mr Pincher's conduct will put further pressure on the Mr Johnson to clean up the culture in Westminster, while the Daily Telegraph says there are also questions about him being allowed to continue to sit as a Tory MP in the Commons.
The Times reports the prime minister was warned about appointing Mr Pincher, adding his resignation will lead to questions about Boris Johnson's judgement.
The Daily Mail reckons the "shock resignation" risks reviving the "Pestminster row about political sleaze" – referring to a series of allegations of sexual misconduct and bullying in Westminster that emerged in 2017.

It notes that Mr Zahawi is the first Cabinet minister known to have challenged Chancellor Rishi Sunak over his calls for pay restraint – amid concerns that large salary increases could stoke inflation.
