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.

Water bottle carriers are rather ridiculous things really, and some labels sell their versions for about pounds 5million. But if you need to keep hydrated at all costs then this one does the job adequately for remarkably less. Johnny Loves Rosie are fast cornering the market in things-you-don't- really-need; they do it so well, you can't help buying them. Laminating dog biscuits and making them into hair slides is just one of the odd things they do. They also make beautiful retro stuff like cardigan clips and orchid hair clips. Because I believe products should be versatile, no matter how cheap they are, I have investigated what else this product can do and so far I have come up with: carry a ham roll or rolled up newspaper. A bottle of cognac also slips in rather nicely. AB

PVC water bottle carrier, pounds 14.95, Johnny Loves Rosie from The General Trading Co, Sloane Street, London SW1, call 0171 435 0089 for further stockists. Also available in orange, black or white PVC, denim and black nylon.
