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.

Having bonded the City desk of the Daily Telegraph, Lucy Parker has now turned her attention to her brother's public relations outfit. Last Sunday the human resources consultant put Alan Parker and his Brunswick agency through some soul-searching at London's Basil Hotel - doubtless to get them drawing on inner reserves for the long defence of their besieged client, Forte.

Is the Basil a Forte hotel? "All the Forte hotels were full,'' is the official line.
