Back in 1986, our purpose – to think for ourselves, encourage readers to do the same, stay away from pacts with political parties, and spark surprising, intelligent debate – was way ahead of its time.

For 37 years, we have continued to campaign for what we believe in, not what we are told to believe, with integrity, inclusion, innovation and independence as our guiding principles.

We have grown a huge, global readership of independently minded individuals, who value our trusted voice and commitment to positive change.
