Lammy demands Farage cleans racists out of Reform after vile attacks
"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."
"I experienced [racism] as a young boy growing up in London, where the ugly face of division could be seen on a daily basis. I was terrified when skinheads patrolled our neighbourhoods, spreading their hate on street corners and football terraces. On one occasion, I was just going about my business with my mum and my sister when we were spat on just for being who we are."
The Independent funds on‑the‑ground reporting across topics including reproductive rights, climate change and Big Tech, investigating matters like Elon Musk's pro‑Trump PAC and producing documentaries such as 'The A Word' about American women fighting for reproductive rights. The outlet refuses to place reporting behind paywalls and seeks donations to keep journalism accessible and to continue sending reporters to cover developing stories. In UK politics, David Lammy called on Nigel Farage to clean up Reform after racist jibes by candidates and councillors, including Hampshire mayoral candidate Chris Parry, who made derogatory comments about Lammy's loyalties, labelled female colleagues 'harpies' and predicted a Parliament filled with Muslim MPs by 2035. Lammy recounted personal experiences of racist abuse as a child.
