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.

Sir: I was interested to read John Rentoul's story that Tony Blair attended a birthday party at my house in February.

I would like to use your columns to reassure my family and many friends, who may be offended that they were not invited to this event, that no such party took place.

Rt Hon PADDY ASHDOWN MP

(Yeovil, Liberal Democrat)

House of Commons

London SW1
