Journalists are deployed to investigate issues ranging from reproductive rights to climate change and Big Tech, including financial investigations and a documentary highlighting American women fighting for reproductive rights. Quality journalism is kept accessible without paywalls and is funded by donations to enable reporters to speak to both sides of emerging stories. Campaigners have renewed calls to ban the smacking of children in England as public opposition to forceful actions rises, especially among young adults. Wales and Scotland have outlawed all corporal punishment, while England and Northern Ireland still allow a "reasonable punishment" defense under the Children Act 2004. New polling shows major increases in young adult opposition.
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.
Wales made any type of corporal punishment, including smacking, hitting, slapping and shaking, illegal in March 2022, while Scotland introduced a similar ban in November 2020. But it is not completely outlawed in England and Northern Ireland. According to the Children Act 2004, it is unlawful to hit your child, except where it is reasonable punishment, and this is judged on a case-by-case basis.
