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.Few charities in Britain have a deeper or more beneficial impact on public policy than Shelter, which works with the homeless.
A consensus is emerging around the fact that housing is one of the great issues of our time. Amol wrote about it for this site and in the Evening Standard too.
Nick Cohen wrote rather well about it for the Spectator too.
In a rather brilliant post on Shelter's website, Adam Terry absolutely nails the issue of nimbyist obstruction to house-building.
He points that while 80 per cent of people think there is a national housing crisis, only 45 per cent think there is a crisis in their local area.
Anyone interested in the issue of housing - which should mean all of us - would do well to read his post.
