I've seen firsthand that stopping the boats is simply an impossible task'
"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."
"It was around 7.45am when the first small boat appeared. The sun was rising above Gravelines, a coastal town which lies at the mouth of the River Aa between Calais and Dunkirk. It was the first calm day in more than a week. Three military reservists, in khaki uniforms and black vests bearing the word gendarme' officers salaried by the UK had been standing on the riverbank a couple of hundred metres from where the waterway opens onto the English Channel."
The Independent covers issues from reproductive rights and climate change to Big Tech, investigating matters such as the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC and producing documentaries like 'The A Word' about American women fighting for reproductive rights. The outlet emphasizes parsing facts from messaging and relies on donations to keep reporters on the ground. The Independent remains available without paywalls and asserts trust across the political spectrum, funded by those who can afford it. At about 7.45am a small boat arrived near Gravelines as the sun rose, and three military reservists on the riverbank observed an inflatable raft carrying around a dozen young men while people began appearing on the nearby beach.
