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.

l The Ministry of Sound

Old hands moan that "It's not as good as it used to be", which means that from everyone else's point of view it has improved. If you can stand the queues and withstand the security staff (if you are innocent you have nothing to be afraid of) you could do a lot worse than go and see what all the fuss is about.

l Turnmills

With its "club art" interior design, Turnmills is one of London's pioneering multi-media clubs. The gallery night on Fridays is the most popular place in town to dance to house music. Mass hysteria guaranteed.

l Heaven

Recently given a facelift, London's premier gay club is some people's vote for London's best club full stop. The alarming clientele prove once and for all that straight women go to ogle the bodies and not to escape male attention.

l The Fridge

Situated within the vast open-air club that is Brixton, The Fridge is the favourite haunt of many people who have never been there. For those who have, this cavernous venue deserves its legendary reputation.

l The Leisure Lounge

The best drum and bass in the capital is to be found here, if you like that sort of thing. Should you find yourself temporarily deafened you can enjoy the impressive slide visuals and backlit photos thoughtfully laid on by the management.
