Letter: Blair's public spirit
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: Unnecessary organisational change is what most of us working in the public sector have had to suffer over and over again. Real change - scrapping the internal market, ending the divisive "best value" competition and the false, unequal "partnership" with private, profit-making business, breaking the Tory spending limits - is what most of us actually want.
It is Blair and his 300 sycophants (many with public service backgrounds themselves) who are some of the most inflexible people we have ever come across, stuck in the (Tory) mud and offering no change at all.
