"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."
"Slashing net migration to zero would shrink the economy and require a swathe of tax rises or an increase in borrowing in order to plug a 37bn funding shortfall, a leading economic think tank has warned, in what is a major blow to Reform UK's immigration plans.

Official figures show net migration fell to 204,000 in the year to June, down 69% year-on-year.
