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.Theresa May may not. Be the chairman of the Conservative Party for very much longer, that is. Hers cannot have been a happy incumbency, although thinking about it that way already puts her in the past tense, which may be unfair. She has had to put up with a good deal of sniping, whether it concerns the strategic direction she has been taking Central Office or the tactical implications of her favoured (Russell and Bromley) celebrated kitten heels.
The latest pretender to her role goes by the name of Tim Yeo. Mr Yeo is unusual on today's Conservative front bench in that he has solid ministerial experience, although it was gained a long time ago. He was once quite well known for a time for all the wrong reasons, but today is even more obscure than Ms May. It is not obvious that he would represent an improvement. He, or his acolytes (Yeo-ites? Yeovians? Yeotistas?), should leave Ms May alone.
