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: Why all this hoo-hah over food fads ('Junk-food diet threatens collective health', 2 March)? We should enjoy our food, fatty or not, but eat everything in moderation. The same with alcohol and sex. Let's eat, drink and be merry, we all have to die at some point. Life is not a rehearsal, let's live it to the full and enjoy ourselves, and say 'Bah, humbug]' to the moaning minnies who try to spoil our lives with their 'Thou shalt nots]'.

Yours faithfully,
