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.

The Prince of Wales has spoken of his joy at the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge expecting their first child.

He said: "I'm thrilled, marvellous. It's a very nice thought to become a grandfather in my old age, if I can say so.

"I'm very glad my daughter-in-law is getting better, thank goodness."

The Prince was boarding HMS Belfast in London to cross over to the SA Agulhas, where he met Sir Ranulph Fiennes to wish him well on his latest Antarctic exhibition.

When he first spoke to reporters, the Prince joked: "How do you know I'm not a radio station?"
