Letter: Tory troubles
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: Some Tories believe that the UK should leave the EU, and become an associate member of the North Atlantic Free Trade Area. Do they really see the long-term future of this country best served by being tied to the apron-strings of the US Congress, where the UK would have even less influence than do Canada and Mexico, the other full members of Nafta?
Oh for an opposition party which puts forward sensible and plausible policies, instead of letting itself be led by shrill Europhobes.
