UK needs new defence pact with Europe amid fears over Trump, voters say
"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."
"Britain should join forces with Europe in a new defence pact because it can no longer trust Donald Trump's America to defend it in the event of a military attack by Russia, voters believe. That is the stark outcome of a survey by the Independent to gauge the public's reaction to dramatic changes in US foreign policy under Donald Trump and increasing hostility to Europe including Britain from Russia's Vladimir Putin."
The Independent sends journalists to cover developing stories on reproductive rights, climate change and Big Tech and produces documentaries such as 'The A Word' about American women fighting for reproductive rights. Donations fund reporters on the ground and keep reporting free of paywalls, with content paid for by those who can afford it. A JL Partners poll found 55% of British voters support a new UK/Europe defence alliance without the United States, while 11% oppose it. Such sentiment signals a historic potential shift in defence policy, rooted in distrust of Donald Trump's America and rising hostility from Vladimir Putin. Defence of Britain and Europe currently depends on NATO, established in 1949 after the Second World War.
