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.The Office is an unfamiliar name in London clubland. Located just off Oxford St, the Office is the night-time alias of a wine bar generally known as Shuffles. In the words of manager, Ian Marriot, the Office is "a more acceptable name for a nightc lub than Shuffles". True, but only just. Even if choosing names is not his forte, his choice of promoters is. It's very unlikely that you can go wrong with the Double Six Club on a Wednesday night. The Double Six Club, as all of London must know by now, is thecelebrated board-games night. It's an event about which the promoters thought: "Surely no one will pay £5, mid-week, to come in to the centre of London and play Buckaroo", and were proved wrong. The success of the club means that it has been expor ted to Nottingham and Brighton, and the promoters are now scouring Blackpool for a new venue. To be sure of getting in, ring in advance and book.
Saturday night's offering, Yes Please, is London's best-kept secret. The music is on a jazz-funk tip with guest DJs such as Patrick Forge often making an appearance. The wine bar interior is well disguised by a plethora of drapes and banners. Don't be surprised to find yourself dancing around a manic live artist who sometimes turns up and paints in the middle of the dance-floor.
The Office, 3-5 Rathbone Place, W1 (071-225 1098)
