Why MPs are set to tell bad dad jokes during Commons debate
"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."
"Members of Parliament are set to tell "terrible dad jokes" in the Commons to highlight concerns over paternity leave, which they brand "the worst dad joke of the lot." In Britain, statutory paternity pay is capped at 187.18 weekly, or 90 per cent of average earnings, whichever is lower. Fathers receive two weeks' leave on this pay, taken together or separately."
Reporters cover developing stories across reproductive rights, climate change, and Big Tech, including investigations into campaign finance and documentaries on American women fighting for reproductive rights. Donations fund journalists to report on both sides of contentious issues and allow quality journalism to remain free of paywalls, supported by those who can afford it. In UK politics, MPs plan to use 'terrible dad jokes' in Commons to draw attention to inadequate paternity provisions. Statutory paternity pay is capped at 187.18 weekly or 90 per cent of average earnings, and fathers receive two weeks' leave on that pay, while self-employed parents often receive no support.
