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.

Not to be outdone in press coverage by KFC's chicken burger that's entirely chicken, McDonald's has opened a pop-up giant lunch box in Australia.

The violently red cuboid, the lid of which flips up for service, will tour Australian cities including Perth, Adelaide, Sydney and Melbourne, where the fast food chain is known as Macca's.

The pop-up was devised to celebrate the launch of a rump steak wrap, though I don't know what kind of fancy pants school student ever had a steak wrap in their lunch box.

I guess it's trying to cash in on childhood nostalgia, so expect Burger King to serve out of a giant light-up sneaker soon and Taco Bell employees to start wearing top knots as standard.
