Your support helps us to tell the story
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. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.HOPE FOR civilisation recedes with every issue of The Grocer. It boasts "exclusive" coverage of the IFF show, where Alf Carr, director-general of the British Frozen Food Federation enthuses:
There is an increase in sophistication of the bake-off process with products going into stores and being cooked and sold there. People always think the main base for frozen lines is the retail cabinet but now there is every sort of product you can think of for bake- off.
Bake-off (not in the OED) is a bogus process, akin to those pubs which proclaim home-made food but merely heat it up. Carr's intestines are girding themselves: McCain's bake-off "will set an industry standard over the next few years, they give a home- delivery or pizza-parlour standard".
