Letter: No democracy in a Tory minority
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: That the current Government has been elected by a minority of those who choose to vote calls into question the integrity of our parliamentary "democracy". We are now faced with the possibility of being ruled by an even less representative Conservative Party: one either of the extreme, or the centre right, depending on the outcome of the leadership contest. Whoever wins that must surely call a general election if our Glorious Constitution is to be worth the paper it's not written on.
Yours faithfully,
