Letter: Real winners in the lottery
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: It would be wonderful if the Secretary of State decreed that all new buildings subsidised by lottery funds achieved the highest standards of design, construction and performance (letter, 25 May).
It would be even more wonderful if this meant that all the new buildings would be fully accessible to anybody with a disability, thus compensating disabled people a little for the failure of the Civil Rights Bill.
Cricket pavilions should be included - and entry through the front door please; we're fed up having to go round the back and ring a bell.
Yours faithfully,
