Couldn't run a bath, let alone a council': Readers slam Reform after council chaos
"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. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story. The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.Your support makes all the difference."
"If Reform UK ever won power in Westminster, many Independent readers believe it would look much like what's happening in Kent chaotic, divided and out of control. Our community has been reacting after footage emerged of council leader Linden Kemkaran berating colleagues and telling them to suck it up, prompting the suspension of four councillors from Reform's flagship Kent County Council. Reform took control of the authority earlier this year in a shock local election victory, ending three decades of Conservative rule."
