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.

Public opinion is swinging in favour of joining the single currency - and would be more positive if the Government were urging membership, according to MORI poll.

The poll for the investment bank Salomon Brothers showed that the majority against Britain joining the Euro has fallen to its lowest for more than three years, with 30 per cent in favour, 52 per cent against and 18 per cent "don't knows". The majority against, 22 per cent, compares with 27 per cent in October, with the shift concentrated on the AB social group.
