Morning Update: The Independent ditches print; Bernie Sanders targets injustice; Microsoft answers questions you didn’t ask

Evgeny Lebedev has confirmed that the Independent and Independent on Sunday will cease printing, with the last editions to be published in late March.

Lebedev, who also confirmed the sale of the cut-price national stablemate i to Johnston Press, did not reveal how many of the 150 full-time staff would lose their jobs. Including regular casual staff it is thought that at this stage there will be about 111 redundancies, although this could change.
