Your support helps us to tell the story

In my reporting on women's reproductive rights, I've witnessed the critical role that independent journalism plays in protecting freedoms and informing the public.

Your support allows us to keep these vital issues in the spotlight. Without your help, we wouldn't be able to fight for truth and justice.

Every contribution ensures that we can continue to report on the stories that impact lives

Sir: Like Mary Harvey (letter, 7 November) I very much enjoyed the lighter evenings during the experimental period of keeping the clocks an hour ahead of Greenwich Mean Time. The reason for this measure during the Second World War was to save precious energy. It seems strange that when the need to preserve resources becomes ever more pressing the Government neglects to take this step.

However, in the end it boils down to a matter of personal preference. Referendums are becoming more common. Here is something which everyone can understand and which could be decided in this way.
