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.

Carole Caplin dismissed claims last night that she was planning to "tell all" about her relationship with Tony and Cherie Blair.

A statement issued by her solicitor, Martin Cruddace, said the lifestyle guru had no intention of disclosing confidential information about the Blair family either in a book or newspaper articles. The statement said she issued the denial because of the "incredible speculation, rumours and false statements that have been recently widely publicised, including statements purportedly made by or attributed to Ms Caplin". It said she was particularly concerned about a story in the Daily Mail which suggested she was considering offers of up to £1m to publish a book about her relationship.

The lawyers said they would demand damages from the newspaper. A Daily Mail spokesman said its report was based on sources who had always proved reliable.
