The Financial Times leads on Mr Xi’s speech, which took place at the opening of the Communist Party’s week-long National Congress in Beijing. He “outlined goals ranging from the unification of China and Taiwan to an ‘all out people’s war’ against Covid-19”, the paper reports. In its bit on Ms Truss, the FT says MPs aren’t the only ones losing confidence in the PM – “leading City figures [are] too”. Tory peer Stuart Rose, the former M&S boss and Asda chair, tells the paper Ms Truss is a “busted flush”.
