By popular request (1 person), I’ll try and post our @financialtimes.com print fronts more often. Tonight: a leap into the market for Chinese tech; European wildfires rage; Infantino brushes aside criticism; and Andy Burnham wants to link schools with employers. #tomorrowspaperstoday #news

Jasper, who is also a small, black ex-stray turned duvet fan and lovebug, says he’s very glad that Napoleon is home.
Annoying volume button on the U.K. screenshot, sorry. Full version below.
The @financialtimes.com front pages tonight. Trump’s war on Iran hasn’t endeared him to voters; the ayatollah’s funeral; and cider wars in Europe. In the UK, the FCA warns that people are seeking personal financial advice from AI, and easyJet is probably going American. #tomorrowsfrontpagestoday
Maybe it’s just me but after the past decade of Tory PM-swapping, the Labour Party’s thinking this weekend is feeling rather …
Our front pages tonight: at risk of being very out of date overnight? But deadlines are deadlines. Deal or no deal?; gambling companies gambled against; and welcome news for parents of young children. #tomorrowspaperstoday #buyapaper
Colin Inman, the @financialtimes.com writing style guru, has sadly died. Here is our obituary (gift link, 300 clicks) - & a page from the introduction to the FT Style Guide which he wrote. (No this post has not been approved by the FT style council, errors mine). as.ft.com/r/a1b1b5ca-2...
Tonight’s front pages (yes we produce U.K. and global editions). The toxic debate literally nobody asked for rears its ugly head again, and that sound you can hear is the global economy screaming in the background. #brexit #tomorrowspaperstoday #buyapaper #hormuz
Fair play to The Sunday Times, this is a banging cartoon for anyone who knows anything about English art
Just doing my day job instead of talking about airport strategy for a moment, here’s tomorrow’s front page. #tomorrowspaperstoday
The @financialtimes.com front page tonight: India has gained access to the Strait of Hormuz by talking to Iran. Will Europe try it?
It’s been a busy weekend for our fantastic global team of reporters and editors, partic our unmatched Tehran crew - so instead of doing a thread of various news items you’ve missed, I’ll just leave you with this: proof that print is still alive and kicking in the 21st century. #buyapaper
Dear sir/madam, May I interest you in a product with a strong track record (four centuries) that will satisfy your information needs in an efficient package? It is called a news paper. It consists of sheets of pulped wood, printed with various items of the day. I think you will find it beneficial.

Tonight’s front: Europe wants to be in the room where it happens, in Alaska on Friday … a legal wrangle over Russia oil sanctions … and - nice problem to have? Spain has a solar energy glut.
Tonight’s @financialtimes.com front: poorest hit by wage slowdown but Trump’s team continue to attack economic data … Plus, Switzerland’s 39% tariff is the country’s worst defeat since 1515, apparently. They are not happy. and OPEC has given up on its attempt to boost oil prices with output cuts.
Tonight’s front - an EU/US trade deal, and Brits turn to VPNs to dodge new internet controls designed to protect children
