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.

Google is convenient but a feast for the eyes it is not, which is why the company has now released new themes by leading fashion designers and other artists to 'beautify' its Chrome browser.

The new masks include city landscapes by Donna Karan, Matthew Williamson's signature peacock feathers, the animal print that Dolce & Gabbana are known for, and a more romantic floral theme by Oscar de la Renta.

Trend label PPQ opted for a more minimal design with white dots on black ground, Mulberry's proposal is a vision of autumnal trees, and Vivienne Westwood's is a graphic theme in blue tones.

Other contributors include leading artists and designers such as Jeff Koons, Karim Rashid, and Jenny Holzer as well as car manufacturer Porsche and textile brand Cath Kidston.
