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.

Former Rolling Stones bassist Bill Wyman, 75, stood arm in arm with his old pals Mick Jagger, 69, Keith Richards, 68, and Charlie Watts, 71, last night at the premiere of a documentary celebrating the band's 50th anniversary.

Wyman split from the band in 1990. But wearing a blue blazer and sunglasses, he still looked pretty rock 'n' roll.

But sadly he won't be joining his bandmates for their O2 gigs next month.

Speaking from the red carpet at the world premiere of Crossfire Hurricane the Stones fuelled rumours that they will play at Glastonbury next year.

Richards said: "I don't know yet...I'd love to though."
