"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."
"Sir Keir Starmer's winter fuel cuts will hit around 600,000 disabled pensioners, the government's analysis of the policy found. The prime minister's decision to restrict the payment to those earning 35,000 or less will see more than two million pensioners miss out on the allowance, worth up to 300. Of those, more than a quarter are disabled and will be forced to hand back the 300 payment through the tax system."
Coverage spans reproductive rights, climate change and Big Tech, including investigations into the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC and a documentary called 'The A Word' about American women fighting for reproductive rights. Donations fund journalists to report on developing stories, to interview multiple perspectives and to keep reporting freely accessible without paywalls, with support sought from those who can afford it. Government analysis finds Sir Keir Starmer's winter fuel cuts will affect around 600,000 disabled pensioners; a 35,000 income threshold will see over two million pensioners lose an allowance worth up to 300, with more than a quarter of affected pensioners disabled and required to return the payment through the tax system. Campaigners say the threshold fails to account for disabled pensioners' additional costs.
