"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."
"The government's decision to require all GP practices in England to keep their online booking systems open throughout the day has sparked a mixed reaction from Independent readers. Supporters praised the convenience of digital systems, with some noting that many queries such as medication advice or follow-ups can be resolved without face-to-face appointments. They argued that online forms give doctors more information in advance, allowing them to prioritise urgent cases and manage time better."
