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.

We're comedy connoisseurs here at The Independent - and we love to share - so we've decided to give away five copies of the Tony Hancock Collection on DVD.

Each boxed set - worth a handsome £49.99 each - contains eight discs' worth of Hancock's miserabilist masterwork, all 37 surviving episodes of Hancock's Half Hour, the groundbreaking series written by Ray Galton and Alan Simpson. Five decades on, it is still one of the most consistently funny British sitcoms, with Hancock setting the archetype for the lugubrious, misunderstood, self-proclaimed genius trapped by circumstance, also starring Carry On legends Hattie Jacques, Sid James and Kenneth Williams.

To get your hands on one of these wonderful sets, all you have to do is answer the question below:

This competition closes on Friday 8 July.
