"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."
"The chancellor has been urged to introduce measures to shame companies that are increasing the price of their products while decreasing their size at the upcoming Budget. This phenomenon known as shrinkflation' has become pronounced during the ongoing cost of living crisis, with food prices remain high for many despite inflation recently slowing. Supermarkets should be empowered to put labels on offending products, the Institute For Public Policy Research (IPPR) has said, forcing greater transparency on food prices."
The Independent emphasizes the need for on-the-ground reporting and free access to journalism funded by donations, arguing quality journalism should be available to everyone without paywalls. The Institute for Public Policy Research (IPPR) urged the chancellor to introduce measures at the 26 November Budget to combat shrinkflation, where products shrink while prices rise. IPPR described shrinkflation as pronounced amid the ongoing cost-of-living crisis and high food prices despite slower inflation. Recommended measures include labeling shrinkflated products, forcing greater pricing transparency, ensuring convenience stores stock cheaper non-brand items, and making the cost of living central to economic policy.
