Kev's true colours
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.Sporting a red jacket, Kevin Keegan showed his true colours yesterday when the Newcastle United manager played away at the Labour Party conference in Brighton, writes Colin Brown.
"Tony Blair is a breath of fresh air for me." he said after a fringe meeting organised by the Football Association. Keegan's millionaire boss, Sir John Hall, is a strong Conservative supporter and John Major visited his club only a fortnight ago.
But Keegan said: "My father was a staunch Labour man. He was a miner and a strong union man. It's in my blood. I can remember him throwing the Tories out of the house when they wanted to use it as a canvassing office."
