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.

Lily Allen restarted the party on Glastonbury's Pyramid Stage this evening after organisers temporarily pulled the power as a safety precaution following lightning.

The "Not Fair" singer performed in a racy pink jumpsuit and danced among giant inflatable milk bottles "because she's a mum".

She called President of FIFA Sepp Blatter a c**t and dedicated her song "F**k You" to him before announcing later on in her set that she had a "wedgie", pint in hand.

But while many fans cheered along both at Worthy Farm and in living rooms up and down the UK (particularly the "ladies" she repeatedly shouted out to), not everyone was enamoured with Allen's colourful set.

Here's a selection of some of the most-telling reactions during her set - the good, the bad and the ugly:
