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.

Richard Curtis forgot to include a lesbian strand in Love Actually, so the makers of Imagine Me and You have provided one for him. Match Point's Hugh Grant-alike, Matthew Goode, is marrying Piper Perabo, who proves she can do an English accent as well as Gwyneth and Renée. But on their wedding day, Perabo catches sight of a florist, Lena Headey, and realises she hasn't just married the wrong man, she was wrong to marry a man at all. The women's budding romance would have been fine as a 10-minute segment in Love Actually, but all the scenes of characters gazing wistfully into space make the mood a lot more like a funeral than a wedding.
