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.

i cannot tell you how good it is to be back in the Yookay after my extended stay back home in the States. Don't get me wrong, I love America with all my heart but there's something about coming back here and being a big fish in a small pond that is right up my street. I find it strangely reassuring that you still refuse to address certain basic issues like prole obesity, the age-old dental thing, basic personal hygiene but... i have to admit, I've missed you.

I'm safely ensconced back in the Cooperdome and the old Quattroporte has been released from the garage. From now on, I'm going to be writing a daily diary for you guys so you can get a feel for what being someone with a successful social life feels like. Victoria, my British fiancée, and the main reason for my being back here on your shores, organised a huge "welcome back" party for me and, not to beat about the bush, it rocked.

We had it in The Groucho Club in Soho and you probably saw some of the pap shots in the papers? A couple of my old friends seem to have lost the habit of drinking too much free champagne and behaved quite appallingly in the street outside. I've never been a fan of Duncan Bannatyne but what they did was unforgiveable (but quite funny). Anyways, big week ahead and you're going to be getting front-row seats so enjoy the ride...
