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.Motatos – a new budget supermarket hailing from Scandinavia set to rival Aldi and Lidl – launched in the UK yesterday and says it’s up to 60 per cent cheaper than its rivals.
The online-only store was founded in 2014 in Sweden with a no-waste policy at its core. Selling surplus inventory from wholesalers and distributors at marked down prices, Motatos aims to save products from the landfill while helping customers save on their weekly shop.
The unfolding cost of living crisis and grocery prices rising at their fastest rate in eight years means the arrival of Motatos on British shores couldn’t have come at a better time for many.
From Walkers and Heinz to Lindt, Simple, Nandos and Dove, the grocer’s online aisles span food cupboard goods, beauty, homewares, beverages, pets and more – with big-ticket brands at prices that won’t blow the bank.
With stellar two-for-one savings and bundle deals, it’s easy to meet the £20 minimum spend and if your basket reaches £40, you can enjoy free delivery. Better still, you can get 20 per cent off your first order with the code “welcome20”. Here’s everything we’re adding to our basket.
