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.

I WAS outraged to see your two-page spread about no-go Britain.

As a resident of East Moulsecoomb for many years I've never encountered any trouble on the estate. I am a postman and have delivered mail to the estate for five and a half years (longer, in fact, than anyone else) and have never, ever, had any trouble with anyone there. Your picture actually shows my house. Believe me your photographer doesn't know his geography because for the past 16 years that I've lived here, there has never been any trouble.

I suggest you get your facts right first. In the meantime, an apology to the whole estate wouldn't go amiss.
