LETTER: A royal marriage
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.Sir: Prince Charles and Camilla get my congratulations and good wishes.
Not many wealthy people are as philanthropic as he is. The spectacle of MPs baying for the Prince's blood over his income from the Duchy this week sickened me. Labour woo celebrity, commerce and industry with promises of no tax increases yet display venomous envy of the Prince who has helped countless people of all ages through patronage of the Prince's Trust and in so many ways.
It would bring nothing to this country to have a president in the mould of Thatcher or Blair. Heaven forbid that we move towards giving more power to those who may be fiscally irresponsible and morally bankrupt, yet quick to blame and scapegoat.
