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.

More than one in four Britons has never cooked or helped to prepare the Christmas dinner, a survey suggests. Younger people are most culpable, with 44 per cent of under-45s not getting involved, and almost a third still relying on their parents for the festive feast.

The poll, for HelloFresh.co.uk, found that the "golden age" when people first cook or help with Christmas dinner is 23. But 28 per cent of Britons have yet to do that.
