letter:Pass the jam
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.MANY thanks to Helen Fielding for a fine piece of journalism, "Battle of the great outdoors" (Review, 4 June), a most enjoyable read.
The same could not be said of the supporting photographs, in particular the one bottom right on page 13 captioned "Traffic jam at Winnats Pass". On closer inspection I note that the jam is made up of parked cars leading to a dead-end. In fact, the approaching traffic seems able to move with some ease.
Could this be some tongue-in-cheek slant on the extent of Derbyshire's traffic problems? Maybe we should ask Derbyshire County Council to fax its plans down to Westminster's council headquarters and relieve Londoners of their plague.
