"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."
"Sami Hamdi is on a flight home to London after being held in US immigration detention for more than two weeks. The political commentator was detained by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) at San Francisco International Airport after travelling there for a speaking tour on 26 October. His family confirmed on Thursday that he was on his way back to the UK."
"While we welcome this development, we want to underscore that no family should ever have to go through what we have: Sami was in the United States on a valid visa when he was abducted and detained by ICE, despite committing no crime. The family said Mr Hamdi had been living in terrible conditions since being detained, staying in a room with between 80 and 90 other people."

Sami Hamdi, a British political commentator, was detained by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement at San Francisco International Airport on 26 October while on a speaking tour. His family confirmed he was returning to London after more than two weeks in US immigration detention. The US agreed to allow him to leave voluntarily with no deportation order and no allegations.
