Sports Letter: Hip hip Hoey
Your support helps us to tell the story
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.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Sir: Perhaps once Kate Hoey has finished bragging (sports letters, 10 November) about her five matches, one training session, and after-match meetings with Clive Woodward's England rugby team, she will ponder the following question. How many similar visits did she make to watch Wales, or the 1999 Five Nations' Champions, Scotland? Of course, had the Minister for English Sport and Fox-Hunting done so, she would have had to sit through some exciting back play and even tries, so perhaps it is best she stayed away.
