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.The Old Crown is a beautifully decorated old pub, handy for the British Museum and all the computery shops on the Tottenham Court Road and New Oxford Street. What was once obviously your standard dingy, fringes-of-West-End hole has been
tarted up with lovely new-agey slub greens and creams, baskets of plants in the windows and little jars of lilies on the tables. That's what it looks like from the outside. The drawback is that it serves as a watering hole for all the hardware salesmen from the aforementioned shops, who hog the bar shouting about their female colleagues' physical appearance and showing each other their mobile phones. Shame.
