"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."
"Thousands of refugees could face homelessness this winter after the Home Office reversed a policy allowing migrants more time to find accommodation before they are evicted from hotels. Asylum seekers are housed in hotels around the country while they wait for their claims to be processed, but when they receive a successful refugee grant enabling them to live and work in the UK they are evicted."
"Reducing the 'move-on' period will increase levels of homelessness and destitution for people granted protection and put additional pressure on local authorities. The numbers don't add up. It takes around 35 days to receive Universal Credit. Local authorities need 56 days to work with households at risk of homeles"
The Independent funds on-the-ground reporting across issues like reproductive rights, climate change, and Big Tech while keeping content accessible without paywalls and asking for donations to sustain journalists. Thousands of refugees face possible homelessness after the Home Office reversed a policy that previously gave migrants more time to find accommodation before eviction from hotels. Asylum seekers granted refugee status are routinely evicted soon after receiving permission to live and work in the UK. A prior extension from 28 to 56 days was reversed, prompting charities to warn of increased homelessness and added pressure on local authorities amid delays in Universal Credit and local support.
