Letter: Subordinate subjects
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: The Prime Minister's belief that referendums are a 'device of demagogues and dictators' perhaps explains why he is at pains to give the Danish government time to 'deal' with its people's rejection of the Maastricht treaty.
Clearly, the new Europe under John Major's presidency will eschew demagoguery and dictatorship in favour of democratic centralism. Subsidiarity for the peoples of Europe must require proper subordination to politicians and bureaucrats who alone understand the major issues affecting our lives.
Yours faithfully,
