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.

Good Friday news for anyone still suffering from Breaking Bad withdrawal symptoms - a one-man show based on the Emmy-winning TV drama is heading for the UK.

Miles Allen will tour the country in 2015 after enjoying five star reviews at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival last summer.

His parody performance sees him squeeze all five seasons of Breaking Bad into one hour and impersonate lead characters Walter White, Jesse Pinkman, Skyler, Saul, Hank, Walt Junior, Gus Fring and Mike.

Allen describes his comedy gig as a “love letter for all the fans who lived through the blood, meth and tears of the greatest television show ever made”.

Never fear, however, for YouTube hit Allen promises that the only tears in One Man Breaking Bad will be from laughter.

Fans hoping to catch Allen’s show can catch him in a range of UK towns and cities when the tour kicks off on 1 March at the Lowry in Salford.
