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.

MORE tentative signs of economic recovery, despite the sickening and ever-upward march in unemployment. November showed a quite considerable pick-up in new car registrations. For the first time since Britain left the ERM, even the poor old pound made some headway against the mark - a trend immediately seized on by Norman Lamont as showing greater international confidence in Britain's future. But don't get too bullish yet. Mr Lamont has proved himself a pretty reliable contrary indicator: he's usually wrong on matters economic. At the coal face, few British businessmen report anything of any real significance.
