Letter: Embrace the euro
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: John Hawgood asks why so much of the debate on the euro focuses on the UK's interests rather than those of the EU as a whole (letter, 10 September). Speaking for myself the answer is quite simple and obvious: it's because I happen to live here, and what affects the UK's prosperity affects me personally. And whilst I wish people living in other countries well - whether they're inside or outside the EU, or NAFTA, or the United Nations or whatever - I don't really care about their political and economic standing in the world in the slightest.
