Bunhill: Virgin
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.WHEN Richard Branson sold Virgin Music to Thorn EMI he held on to the music retail side of the business, which competes directly (and fiercely) with HMV, owned incidentally by Thorn EMI.
Branson should be feeling rather nervous as he eyes HMV's latest move in Glasgow though.
The Thorn subsidiary has just acquired a prime retail site in the City and in the process become landlords to Virgin Retail.
I do hope HMV behave themselves as landlords. The British Airways dirty tricks story is quite enough.
