From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

Police left an amusing note saying “sorry we missed each other” after digging up a cannabis plantation.

Thames Valley Police received a tip off about drugs in woodland near Oxford last week.

Police left a note.

“Ooops! Sorry we missed each other, but feel free to call me on 101 so we can discuss a deal. Lots of love, TVP xx.”

They posted a picture of the note on Twitter and added a hashtag, “We’veGotManners”.

The cannabis plantation was found between a motorway and Wolvercote Mill Stream.

Police said the drugs were “seized and destroyed”.

No one has been arrested.
