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.

Sir: In response to George Griffith's letter (3 August) about his rave-up in a barn, Mr Griffiths has the right to party all night if he so wishes, but he should not expect others around him to follow suit. He was born into a free society and is free to pollute himself, but he is not free to harm others by polluting the air.

There are plenty of purpose- built discos and night clubs that are available for hire - why not utilise these, or better still, take a responsible attitude to his work and life by sleeping through the night (which is a natural thing

to do)?

Yours sincerely,
