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.

You are never too young to buy your first Hirst.

Damien Hirst has published an alphabet book for babies in which each letter is paired with one of his artworks.

The book is printed with “child-friendly soya bean ink” though some of the images are less child-friendly. J is for Jaws (of a pickled shark), L is for Lamb (trapped in a tank), and M is for… Molecules. No, not Money.

That’s taken care of by the cover price: a rather adult £15.
