Letter: The Government was warned beggars would be Thatcher's memorial
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: 'Offensive' - the word used by the leader of an administration that has increased taxation on the mass of the population and reduced it for the rich, that has abandoned the provision of social housing, that rules by patronage and populism, that has driven some of its citizens to suicide and open revolt by the sheer incompetence of some of its administrative acts]
Where are the words to express the corruption and betrayal of the very essence and purpose of our society? But I know what he means - it's the stench of decay.
Yours sincerely,
