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.

Lorde has hinted that she’s very much at work on a third album in a reflective Instagram story, causing fans to take to Twitter to rejoice.

Acknowledging the two-year anniversary of her 2017 album Melodrama and thanking her fans for their support, she confirmed that her third offering was “in the oven”.

“Want to say thank you for how you took that record and made it your own,” she said of her gratitude to her fans for their support of her second record.

“Swells my damn heart thinking about your love for it and your willingness to go there with me and to dance the way we did together.

“It’s a good life you’ve given me, thank you thank you,” she said, commenting on how much she has “grown” since Melodrama was released.

The “Royals” star has also previously confirmed that she was learning piano for her new record.

“I think this next one will probably be born out of the piano in my house; me and my friends, keeping it simple,” she said. “But we’ll see.”
