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.

Letter: BSE: doubts over relevance of the link with scrapie

Sir: Is the Government I see running to the European Commission to complain about France banning British beef the same Government which not so long ago was protesting so viciously about the European Court of Justice?

Perhaps if Britain had kept its mouth shut more and accepted the rough with the smooth, we would not now be witnessing our European partners gleefully taking revenge for so many years of insults, slights and disruptive behaviour from Westminster and beyond.
