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.

Spring has sprung (a few snow showers notwithstanding), so we asked our Instagram followers to post their best photos of the season with the hashtag #IndyTravelSpring. Here is a selection of the seasonal best, taken in the UK and Europe.

Our next topic: Landmarks. Snapped a travel icon? Just add #IndyLandmarks to your Instagram post, new or old, and we'll pick the best for next month's gallery, whether it's the Eiffel Tower, the Empire State Building, or a lesser-known gem.

For #IndyTravelSpring, we start with a glimpse of Mallorca’s verdant mountains, snapped from the train...
