Letter: Labour on the fringes
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: The neo-Thatcherite drift of the present government leaves millions of centre-left voters disillusioned, angry and betrayed.
Those of us living in Wales and Scotland can at least voice our opposition to the Government by voting for the far more radical nationalist parties. However, for those millions of radical voters living in England the choice is between the devil and the deep blue sea. I believe that many voters like myself, who have been betrayed by the present government may well change our traditional hostility towards proportional representation when there is the possibility of a new radical movement drawn from all strands of centre-left opinion united against the hegemony of the present Blair/Hague/Ashdown cabal.
