"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."
"Peter Cripps voted for Labour at the last general election because he was desperate to get rid of the Conservatives. But he wouldn't vote for the party again, not least after the chancellor's make-or-break Budget on Wednesday. As he sat outside his shop Car, Home and Garden in Sheerness on Kent's Isle of Sheepey, the 76-year-old told The Independent: I've lived on the isle for 50 years, this is the worst I've ever known it and this Budget is not going to turn that around."
The Independent emphasizes on-the-ground reporting across issues including reproductive rights, climate change and Big Tech, producing investigations and documentaries while avoiding paywalls and relying on reader donations. The outlet investigates financials such as Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC and highlights American women fighting for reproductive rights in 'The A Word'. Labour chancellor Rachel Reeves unveiled a fiscal statement introducing £26bn of tax rises through frozen thresholds, a mansion tax on properties over £2m, a landlord levy, and measures to lift the two‑child benefit cap alongside a higher minimum wage. Local voter reaction is mixed, with some describing deep local hardship and scepticism about the Budget's impact.
