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.

RELIGHT MY BRIAR

Amidst parental concern about their new stage act, Take That are on a major tour of Britain. With Lulu as support . . .

Smiths restored the cred to Sandie

Pet Shop Boys found Dusty handy

Tammy took a trip to MuMu

Now Take That and partly, Lulu

Bearing bums and raising demons

With the former of Freemans

Partial recall may pursue you

Or your mum on hearing Lulu

My old abandon may suffuse you

'I'm a Tiger' may infuse you

But the tour would be a killer

If they went on tour with Cilla
