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.

Gunpowder as a successful treatment for bunions is just one of the quirky nuggets of information to be found in Tempus Fugit, the adventures of an articled clerk in the 1930s. The author is Clifford Rhodes, a retired provincial solicitor now aged 77, who writes with wit and some nostalgia of his time in the law. (Published by Meredith, Ray & Littler of Salford, price pounds 6.95).
