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.A lucky EuroMillions ticket-holder could scoop £100 million today.
If a single player wins the draw he or she would rank third in the lottery's UK rich list.
The largest ever prize was a £161 million jackpot won by Colin and Chris Weir, from Largs, Scotland, last July.
And in October 2010 an anonymous ticket-holder won £113 million, becoming the largest lottery winner at the time.
A EuroMillions spokesman said: "A EuroMillions win of £100 million could set you off on a luxury trip which never ends - it would be private jets, super yachts and permanent glamour if one ticket-holder banked the entire jackpot.
"We know big jackpots really capture the public's imagination and this is one of the biggest ever offered in this country."
According to The Sunday Times Rich List 2011, the winner of a £100 million jackpot would become joint 703rd richest person in the country with rock'n'roll legend David Bowie.
They would move ahead of celebrity couples such as Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne (£95 million) and Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin (£48 million).
If nobody matches all five main numbers and two Lucky Stars to win the jackpot it will roll to the next draw on October 11.
