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 Prime Minister was asked by radio host to prove he understands the living costs for ordinary voters. In a shocking twist! He didn't.
When asked the price of value supermarket bread, he replied, “It's going to cost you north of a pound”.
It won't - it's around 47-50 pence.
“I don't buy the value stuff. I have a breadmaker at home,” he continued.
He added that he's trying to persuade his young children to eat 'granary bread'.
Well good for him. But sadly not everyone can afford the fancy pants bread.
We've compiled two quizzes below - one with value ranges, and the other pushing the boat out.
So are you a posh or practical shopper?
