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.Disturbing reports of a Tokyo restaurant that you won't be reading about in Michelin's recently published first guide to the Japanese capital have surfaced. An underground members-only restaurant in the Roppongi district is apparently providing a unique dining experience for the ridiculously rich and extremely twisted.

Infinitely more wholesome and much closer to home is the opening of Water House in Hoxton, the latest eco-friendly joint to grace London. It's the work of Jamie Grainger-Smith and Arthur Potts Dawson, the duo behind the successful – and similarly sustainable, animal welfare-friendly and carbon footprint-concerned – Acorn House in King's Cross.
