Cafe owners apologise to Peter Jackson after false eviction claim
"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."
"Penny and John Pennington, who run the Chocolate Fish Cafe, said in a statement on Wednesday that they had mistakenly attributed the end of their tenancy to Jackson and Walsh, and that their earlier comments had been without foundation. On Tuesday 30th September, we were informed by our landlord, Wingnut PM, that our tenancy at Shelly Bay will end on 31 January 2026."
The Independent emphasizes on-the-ground coverage of issues such as reproductive rights, climate change and Big Tech and solicits donations to fund reporters while keeping content free of paywalls. The outlet states that donations enable journalists to speak to both sides of stories and that quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it. Penny and John Pennington of the Chocolate Fish Cafe issued a voluntary apology after mistakenly attributing the end of their Shelly Bay tenancy to Sir Peter Jackson and Dame Fran Walsh. The Penningtons said their landlord, Wingnut PM, informed them the tenancy ends on 31 January 2026.
