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 Duke's Head Embankment SW15 (081-788 2552)

Contact with the river helps make London pleasurable. Just south-west of Putney bridge stands the Duke's Head, a large building whose front room has huge windows overlooking the water. Hardier souls can ask for a plastic glass and brave the breezes playing around the benches on the pavement below while the sun sets over the dark green trees of Bishop's Park. One can point out that the church opposite is the one whose lightning conductor fell off and impaled the priest in The Omen.
