LETTER:United we fall
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 John Madeley
Sir: I seem to recall that just before the last general election in Canada, in October 1993, the Conservative prime minister - whatever was her name? - said something rather similar about her country's economy to what Kenneth Clarke said this week. In the election, Canada's Conservatives were reduced from 160 seats to two. The difference between Conservatives in Canada and in Britain is that in Canada they were rather more united.
Yours sincerely,
JOHN MADELEY
