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.

Under £10

2010 Viñalta Malbec

This new vintage Argentinian malbec from Frenchman Hervé Joyaux shows an invitingly fresh dark-berry-fruit quality, smooth as silk but with enough grip and freshness for roast lamb. £6.99, Marks & Spencer

Splash out

2009 Amaranto Sangiovese Maremma, San Cristoforo

Wonderfully aromatic raspberryish sangiovese with some of the fragrance of pinot noir; a voluptuous dry Tuscan rosso – and a steal. £11.95, Berry Bros & Rudd (0800 280 2440; bbr@bbr.com)
