Earth moves for John Smith
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.The Tories are making a 'very good job' of destroying themselves and the 'politicial earth is moving', John Smith, the Labour leader, says in an interview with the Daily Mirror today. He adds: 'I don't believe the Government should run industry or own industry - but I do believe the Government has got to work with industry. We have got to create a partnership.'
And in a sharp warning to the party to have realistic expectations Mr Smith says: 'If we get good steady economic growth we can afford good social services. If we don't get good economic growth, we can't'
