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.

After teasing their adoring southern public with irregular trips to the capital, Renaissance finally decided to make a commitment to London by taking up a weekly residency. Their night was recently voted the "Best Club Night" at the London Club Awards 1999, but this is one promotion that requires minimal hard sell. The Cross provides an excellent venue, and the crowd has a reputation for glamour and lending their energies to keeping the dancefloor fluid.

Graeme Park, Ian Ossia, Danny Hussain and the excellent Lee Burridge take charge on the Technics tonight, playing deep, melodic house with uplifting vibes. It will be interesting to see how the London clientele takes to a weekly event, given that part of Renaissance's attraction derived from the occasional nature of their gigs.

King's Goods Yard Way, York Way, King's Cross London N1 (0171-837 0828), Sat 10pm-6am, pounds 15
