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.ROBERT WISEMAN Dairies, the milk distributor based in East Kilbride, is expected to come to the stock market with a pounds 60m-pounds 65m value, announcing a placing price of 100p or 105p a share.
Wiseman, which distributes milk across Scotland and north-west England, hopes to raise pounds 11m of fresh capital to build a new dairy in Manchester.
Its customers include Asda, Tesco, Gateway and Safeway. It recently started supplying J Sainsbury in Scotland. About 6 per cent of its sales are still doorstep deliveries.
Wiseman, which is placing 25 per cent of its shares via Panmure Gordon, has decided to float despite the supermarket milk price war.
