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.

It pays tribute to the marketing powers of Sony Pictures that this boxset arrives a mere four months before Christmas; and as novelty packaging goes, the brown-stone whopper screams sensitive, character-specific shopping more than any three-for-one.

A series of drawers contain all the Python hits: And Now For Something Completely Different, The Holy Grail, The Life of Brian, The Meaning of Life, and Live at the Hollywood Bowl. You might argue that the television series, despite its appeal to ageing American comics, is starting to show its age, but the discipline of the movies and the tightness of the writing still hold up.
