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.

Comedian, on tour with "Still live on air".

"I used to go to the Melwood training ground and get autographs. I had Kevin Keegan's 15 times. I'd love to have him at Anfield. My first game was Liverpool v Middlesbrough. We won 2-0 and Souness had a big fight with Jimmy Case. The first time I went to the Kop I hit my head on a barrier and got knocked out. The crowd carried me to the front where the Red Cross were. I got a brilliant view. The current side is terrible, no consistency, no spirit. I'm glad McManaman's going if he doesn't want to be at the club. Fowler's my favourite. I think Matteo and Carragher could come good, but Babb's got to go. The 1960s kit with the hooped collar and the big proud Liverbird, was the best."
