Verve prove holier than All Saints
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 all-girl band All Saints won two Brit awards last night, scooping the prizes for best single and best video for their hit "Never Ever". As expected, the Verve were also successful, taking three awards, including the best British group.
While All Saints were at the ceremony to collect their awards, the Wigan rockers were playing at a charity concert in south London. The band also won the best producer award and their album Urban Hymns won best album. Many celebrities at the event were jostled by protesters campaigning against low pay in the music industry.
