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.

The website

Loco2.com launches a new system on Tuesday, enabling you to book multi-leg European rail journeys originating in the UK in one transaction. This also brings protection if you miss a train because of an earlier late-running departure.

The hotel

WestHouse opens on Wednesday 27 November with 172 1920s- and Art Deco-inspired bedrooms near Columbus Circle in New York – just in time for Thanksgiving. Doubles from $609 (£406), room only (westhousehotelnewyork.com).

The app

The Spanish Tourist Office has launched the first edition of its quarterly iPad arts magazine, SPN. It features an interview with Manolo Blahnik, a message from Ferran Adrià and tips on how to enjoy Ibiza in winter. Free, from iTunes.
