The Canary Newspaper (stories that matter to ordinary people)

The Canary offers independent news stories (mostly focused on the UK, but also worldwide) that matter to ordinary people. With the aim of giving a voice and empowering real people, rather than ‘telling people what to believe and how to vote’.

Citizen-funded, it focuses on peace and equality, many stories focus on proper investment in public services, houses and the NHS, with a decent and compassionate welfare system.

The site is even run on Krystal Hosting, an excellent green web host run on Ecotricity, which works with tree-planting organisations.

Recent articles include:

• The excellent reception of Green leader Zack Polanski on the ‘immigration special on BBC Question Time.
• How European countries banning fur farms, is upping pressure for the UK to ban imports.
• How two disabled campaigners were unable to access parliament’s ‘International Day of Persons with Disabilities’, due to lack of access.
