Letter: Use that Easter campaign break
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: In your front page report of yet another sleaze revelation (27 March), you comment that the Easter weekend forces an effective five- day break, eating into precious campaign time.
If the MPs of all parties spent their Easter break with some self-examination, repentance, confession and reappeared after the five-day break with new life from the Resurrection of Jesus Christ, it would be for the total benefit of the whole country. I cannot think of a better way of "eating into precious campaign time".
