"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."
"Fraser McKevitt, head of retail and consumer insight at Worldpanel, said: For most shoppers, January is all about resetting household budgets, and this year was no exception. While grocery sales continue to grow and inflation eased to its lowest level in months, value remained front of mind for many, with own-label hitting a record high, accounting for more than half of all grocery spend."
"Grocery price inflation eased to 4 per cent in January, reaching its lowest point since April and offering some relief to households. This decline from December's 4.3 per cent coincides with a record 52.2 per cent of grocery sales now comprising supermarket own-label goods, according to market research firm Worldpanel by Numerator. Spending on promotional items also surged by 10.9 per cent year-on-year, the fastest growth since October 2024."
