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.

Fifteen years ago, this lovely bunch of Canadian fellers (snigger) arrived at the Edinburgh Fringe as fresh-faced newbies on the UK comedy scene; now ensconced over here, they're among the most enjoyable acts doing the rounds.

Rejoice, then, as they join forces for a gadabout – Glenn Wool and Craig Campbell wielding silly, shouty but wonderfully crafted tales of outsider adventure; and Stewart Francis dropping the kind of deliciously deadpan one-liners that take a beat to settle before hitting the mark.
