Briefly

Tories forced to retract Braverman mental health claim
"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."
"But soon after the defection, an initial response issued by the Conservative Party included the sentence: The Conservatives did all we could to look after Suella's mental health, but she was clearly very unhappy. The reference to Ms Braverman's mental health was decried across the political spectrum and by mental health charities, and forced her former party into a humiliating retraction."
The Independent reports on topics from reproductive rights to climate change and Big Tech and funds on-the-ground journalism to parse facts from messaging. The outlet investigates items such as the financials of Elon Musk's pro‑Trump PAC and produced the documentary 'The A Word' about American women fighting for reproductive rights. The Independent does not use paywalls and asks supporters to donate so journalists can continue to report broadly. The Conservative Party retracted a statement claiming it had looked after Suella Braverman's mental health after her defection to Nigel Farage's Reform, following criticism from politicians and charities. The defection followed other Tory departures, including Robert Jenrick and Andrew Rosindell, and left nine MPs on a defection watchlist.
