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.

Your support makes all the difference.Despite it being arguably its most talked about show, the BBC is keeping its cards very close to its chest with regards to Peaky Blinders and its upcoming third season.
Last month, Independent.co.uk learned that the broadcaster was working towards an potential April premiere, and on Instagram this week producers appeared to confirm that they’re still on track.
The official release date has now been announced

The new season has been described as “good as f*ck” by a cast member, and will apparently see Tommy and the gang go international - appropriate given the show has now picked up a lot of fans in the US.
“I am genuinely thrilled at the prospect of Season Three. I think it will be the best yet," creator Steven Knight said. "Lots of things familiar, but lots of things are new,” he said. “It’s still a Birmingham story and it always will be. Now, it has international consequences. I can’t wait to see it myself."
Cilian Murphy and Tom Hardy will both be back, joined this time by Paddy Considine, who will play ‘the representative of a force beyond anything Tommy has previously encountered’.
As Tommy suggested at the end of the last season, season 3 will open on his wedding day.
