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.From Mr Geoff Saunders
Sir: To prevent the perpetration of further serious fraud on the people of this country by the Serious Fraud Office, I propose that we replace it with an agency to distribute a reasonable sum of money, say pounds 1m, to anyone who is charged with serious fraud. Just think of the money we would save in legal aid and legal fees. I myself would be prepared to run such an agency on a part-time basis, for a percentage of the money saved.
Yours faithfully,
Geoff Saunders
