"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."
"I think we need to look again at this issue of mental health and ask ourselves a fundamental question, which is: would we not be better putting our money in the resources and support that is needed for mental health than simply saying, it's to be provided in benefits? I'm not saying you shouldn't have benefits for mental health issues, but I do think we need to examine this quite carefully."
Journalists are deployed to cover reproductive rights, climate change, and Big Tech, investigate financial links such as Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC, and produce documentaries like 'The A Word' that profile American women fighting for reproductive rights. Reporting is made freely accessible without paywalls and relies on donations to fund on-the-ground journalism. Concern exists about policy emphasizing mental-health benefits rather than investing in services and support. Reallocating funds toward resources and support for mental health is proposed while retaining benefits where necessary. Approximately one million young people receive benefits, with many claiming them for mental-health issues, prompting scrutiny of long-term welfare dependence.
