The Independent’s front page reports on the police crackdown of anti-Zero-Covid restrictions in China. The paper says the cops were out in full force as UK PM Rishi Sunak warned of the challenges posed by Beijing’s “move towards even greater authoritarianism.” The paper notes Sunak said in a speech that the ‘golden era’ of UK-China relations was over. 

The front page leads with an image of men watching the World Cup – with the headline: “What Qatar doesn’t want you to see.” The paper has an investigation into the abuse of migrant workers.
