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.NEVER, ever, do you have official advance word of the chosen pieces for Desert Island Discs - especially when the castaway is David Mellor, as Radio 4 has with impeccable timing decreed for next week. So you will have to have your fun speculating in the meantime. Will the former London Philharmonic board member go for, say, the orchestra's version of Between Dusk and Dawn, by Sir Arnold Bax, or the Saint-Saens Organ Symphony? Or will he play safe with Delius's Over the hills and far away? Not long to wait: first broadcast is due at 12.15pm tomorrow.
