Your support helps us to tell the story
My recent work focusing on Latino voters in Arizona has shown me how crucial independent journalism is in giving voice to underrepresented communities.
Your support is what allows us to tell these stories, bringing attention to the issues that are often overlooked. Without your contributions, these voices might not be heard.
Every dollar you give helps us continue to shine a light on these critical issues in the run up to the election and beyond

The idea for this came after a pea-shoot lunch we held at Hix Oyster & Chop House a few years ago.
A couple of handfuls of pea shoots, washed
50ml Plymouth gin
20ml sugar syrup
The juice of ½ a lemon
2 pea pods, to serve
Place the pea shoots in a liquidiser with 2 tablespoons of water and blend to make a smooth purée.
Half fill a cocktail shaker with ice cubes. Add the gin, pea shoot purée, sugar syrup and lemon juice and shake for 10-15 seconds.
Strain into 2 chilled martini or coupé glasses. Split the peas in their pods and push on to the side of the glasses to serve.
