Your support helps us to tell the story

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.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Bolts and shackles! It's Imogen Stubbs, and she's holding off Keanu Reeves in the race for the coveted number two spot behind Eddie Murphy's Nutty Professor! Of course, this doesn't mean that Twelfth Night is a better film than Chain Reaction, or that Shakespeare is better than JF Lawton & Michael Bortman. It does means that English people like a spot of cross-dressing. And we knew that.
