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.

Which would you rather have:

Two pastry cutters, one mousse ring, four muffin rings and an egg ring; or:

Two pastry cutters, one mousse ring, four muffin rings, an egg ring, a safety can opener, 1.395kg of tuna and pounds 6.79?

The trick is to buy the tin-opener (a Culinaire Safety Can Opener costing about pounds 6 is needed for this job) then make the other kitchen items out of empty tuna tins (or any other suitably shaped tins with proper rims at the top and bottom). You just remove the tops and bottoms of the tins for your ready-made pastry-cutters, egg rings, mousse rings and muffin rings.

The budget above is based on prices quoted in a current "Chef's Choice" catalogue.
