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.

Every week, we invite competing companies to give us their best deal for a specified holiday. Today: a weekend city break in Berlin, departing on Friday 5 February. The price is the total for two people.

Dertour

£559. Includes easyJet flights from London Luton, two nights' accommodation with breakfast at the four-star NH Berlin Mitte and a Berlin WelcomeCard for unlimited use on Berlin's public transport (including airport transfers), and various reductions on sightseeing tours and museum admission. "The hotel's central location is ideal for exploring the city's many historic sights and museums, as well as the new Friedrichstrasse shopping area," says Dertour's Isabel Marthy (020-7290 1111; dertour.co.uk).

Opodo

£447. Includes Swiss flights from Heathrow via Geneva and two nights' room-only accommodation at the four-star Angleterre Hotel.
