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.

As the rain started pouring on the first day of Glastonbury 2013, we take a look at some of the muddiest moments from the festival to date.

Although there is a chance of further rain, Glastonbury-goers can expect some sunny spells over the weekend with highs of 22C.

Hopefully they will be free from the flash floods and submerged tents of (what was probably) the wettest Glastonbury yet, in 2005.
