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.

Pink Floyd guitarist David Gilmour has been ordered to pull down a beach hut at his listed £3m seafront mansion or face prosecution.

The local council has told the rock musician that the yellow hut he uses to house his bicycles is an eyesore in the conservation area in Hove, East Sussex. Mr Gilmour's wife, writer Polly Samson, appealed over the decision but lost. Brighton and Hove city council has told Mr Gilmour the hut must be removed by 1 October.
