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.

Pressed on whether he had ever inhaled cannabis, Mr Hague said: "No, I never had any myself but I know quite a few people who have." He said he had seen people's lives ruined with drugs at university.

He said he occasionally enjoyed a glass of wine or beer and the last time he had "a little bit too much" to drink was at his wedding in December.

On his wife's choice of outfits, Mr Hague said: "Yes, she is quite a stunner, a wonderful lady."

On whether they were planning to start a family, he said: "Maybe some time in the future, certainly not immediately.

"She has got her own career, just as I have got mine and I think we settle into married life before we embark on a family."
