While the campaign to save @the-independent.com #crossword continues, worth continuing to point out what a fantastic opportunity this is for @theipaper.com . No better daily cryptic - they know this already, as recycled ones form a key part of their strong puzzle section. @olyduff.bsky.social

Sad news that The Independent is to stop its Cryptic Crossword in November, barring a last minute change of heart. It has forged its own distinct identity and will leave a great hole. Particular credit to Mike for introducing so many new great new setters to the professional ranks.
