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.

Night in

Vaucluse Grenache-Syrah

A hot contender for bargain red of the year. This sweetly ripe grenache/syrah Rhône blend, with its moreishly juicy, fruit flavours slips down effortlessly with barbecues, picnics and pasta alike. £4.29, Morrisons

Dinner party

2013 Château de Flaugergues Blanc

This well-crafted white Rhône-style blend is peachy and rich with a glossy succulence of texture that's kept refreshingly dry by the vermentino grape's natural acidity. £8.99, M&S

Splash out

2011 Marisco, A Sticky End, Marlborough Noble Sauvignon Blanc

This trophy-winning wine, made from sauvignon blanc, oozes elderfloral-scented flavours. £15.99, half bottle, buy two = £12.74, Majestic
