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.

THE TRADITIONAL lion-taming and boxing kangaroos have been ditched from circus repertoires in deference to animal-rights activists, council planners and public opinion. Canny troupes have weathered the changes by providing equally extraordinary human acts. Acrobats, trapeze artists and clowns are still on the menu at Gerry Cottle's Circus, whose PC performances are spiced with acts from as far afield as Russia, Columbia, Denmark and Italy.
