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 a Fiver

2006 Southbank Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc

A good-value sauvignon whose nettley aromas and passion fruit flavours make a couple of bottles well worth snapping up. Buy 2 = £4.99 to 30 July, list price £7.49, Majestic

Under a Tenner

2004 Louis Jadot Bourgogne Chardonnay

A well-crafted white burgundy, blending chardonnay from across different regions to produce a dry white of attractive richness. £9.99, Tesco

Splash Out

2005 Laurent Miquel Vérité Viognier

Few southern French viogniers have the aromatic intensity to match their more expensive counterparts in Condrieu, but this fine, low-yielding example is well on its way. £11.99, Waitrose
