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.

From Mr Kenneth Nightingale

Sir: Surely it would be possible to recreate the pre-war architecture in the immediate locality of St Paul's. After all, if it was possible for the post-war governments of Poland and the then Soviet Union to rebuild parts of Warsaw and the then Leningrad to their pre-war splendour, what is there to hinder this proposal other than commercial considerations?

In great cites the world over, cathedrals dominate their surrounds. This is as it was in London. Let's turn the clock back!

Yours sincerely,

Kenneth Nightingale
