It's a shambles': Anger grows as thousands still without water in mass shortage
"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."
"Calls for the resignation of South East Water chief executive David Hinton have grown from a trickle to a roar as tens of thousands of homes across Kent and Sussex are without water for the fourth day in a row, with no clear end to the crisis in sight. Sir Keir Starmer has been urged to send in the army, and an investigation has been launched, as the failure comes just two weeks after another outage in the area affected 24,000 homes in Tunbridge Wells."
The Independent covers reproductive rights, climate change and Big Tech, investigating topics such as Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC and producing the documentary 'The A Word' about American women fighting for reproductive rights. The outlet rejects paywalls and seeks donations to keep reporters on the ground. Tens of thousands of homes across Kent and Sussex have lacked water for four days. Calls for South East Water chief executive David Hinton's resignation have intensified, with calls for the army to intervene and an investigation launched. A prior outage affected 24,000 homes in Tunbridge Wells. Water distribution sites report about 1,000 cars per hour collecting bottled water.
