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.

From next Wednesday Eurostar will offer child fares for just £1 each way to Paris, Brussels and Lille throughout August.

Tickets will be on sale from 16 to 21 July and the same low fare is available in both Standard and Standard Premier. Passengers can also use their Eurostar ticket to get two-for-one entry into a range of top museums and galleries including Musée d'Orsay in Paris and Bozar in Brussels. Tickets will be available at www.eurostar.com.

Tickets are already on sale for a fixed £99 return fare available right up to departure on selected trains to Paris, Brussels or Lille for travel in standard class between 24 July and 31 August.
