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.

FINANCIAL hacks have always insisted on working close to the Square Mile.

When the Daily Telegraph moved to a new home in Docklands, its City staff protested and set up their own office just off Moorgate. The Daily Mail and Evening Standard City reporters have a special office in Covent Garden - hardly Threadneedle Street, but a lot closer than the main newspaper offices in Kensington. FT staff are as pink as their pages having to slog over Southwark Bridge from their new palace on the South Bank.

But the greatest relocation indignity is about to befall my gallant colleagues at the Scotsman. Till now they have survived the diaspora from Fleet Street. But their good fortune has well and truly ended. They're off to Swiss Cottage . . . wherever that may be.
