Labour MP baffled' government still uses X
"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."
"Meanwhile, media watchdog Ofcom has launched an investigation into whether X has broken UK law, over reports that the site's chatbot was used to create and share sexualised images of women and children. Ms Kendall claimed users of the tool had generated images of women tied up and gagged, with bruises, covered in blood and much, much more,"
The Independent covers topics from reproductive rights and climate change to Big Tech and funds reporting through donations while avoiding paywalls to keep content free. Donations enable journalists to report on both sides and send reporters on the ground. A Labour MP expressed bafflement at the government's decision to keep posting on X after a Cabinet minister warned that sexualised images created by Grok were weapons of abuse. Charlotte Nichols asked for a red line for social platforms before switching away, while Liz Kendall suggested merit in ministers maintaining a voice on widely used sites. Keir Starmer issued an ultimatum to Elon Musk and Ofcom has opened an investigation into whether X broke UK law after reports the site's chatbot generated sexualised images of women and children.
