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.

You've got your ticket, you've assembled a crowd and your wellies are ordered - all is well on the festival front. Right? Wrong.

While the announcement of the full Glastonbury 2016 line-up sparked great excitement earlier this year, the release of the set times has once again proved a cause for concern. As is the norm, they have thrown forth some brutal clashes.

Top of the bunch is Coldplay's set coinciding with LCD Soundsystem and Earth, Wind & Fire's while the previous night proves equally as troublesome (Adele, New Order and James Blake all share set times).

Below is our pick of the most frustrating clashes that, sadly, you're just going to have to deal with. After all, Glastonbury wouldn't be Glastonbury without them, right?
