Streeting condemns Farage's deafening silence' over racist' remarks from Reform MP
"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. 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."
"Wes Streeting has claimed Nigel Farage's deafening silence over the racist remarks made by his fellow Reform MP Sarah Pochin says it all. The health secretary went on a furious attack in the wake of Ms Pochin telling Talk TV that it drives me mad seeing adverts full of black and Asian people. Ms Pochin has since apologised, but Mr Streeting claimed: She's only sorry that she's been called and she said the quiet bit out loud. He added: The only way we are going to defeat this racism is to call it out and confront it for what it is."
