Letter: Tories in turmoil
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: Peter Lilley the fall-guy (report, 29 April)? Oh dear! I had hoped his call for an economic policy going beyond the market alone was the start of the "New Tories". What he said in one sentence had more import than all of Hague's nefarious spin-doctoring to date.
How many lost elections will it now take the Conservatives to learn the lesson Labour did, which is to dump archaic, simplistic, unhelpful dogma?
My commiserations, Peter. You will be proven right - eventually.

Sir: If ever proof were needed of BBC bias against the Conservative Party consider the scheduling on BBC 1 on 29 April:
9.30pm: Party election broadcast by the Conservative Party
9.35pm: Men Behaving Badly
10pm: They Think It's All Over.
