Letter: In brief
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.Sir: I was delighted to read , thanks to the efforts of LibDem MP Norman Baker, that the oldest wine in the Foreign Offices' wine cellar is a Chateau Latour 1955 and that the most expensive bottle bought since Labour came to power is a Chateau Latour Petrus 1995 (report, 5 December).
Whilst it is comforting to think of the latter being drunk and enjoyed in 10 to 15 years' time, the former needs drinking up.
Please forward my name and address accordingly.
