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.

Newt Gingrich inspires the same love/hate responses as Margaret Thatcher used to do over here. There are plenty of Newt hate pages currently gloating themselves silly over his fall. This one, "What's Newt", is thinking of changing its name to "The Decline and Fall of Newt".

We have a skewed view of Bangladesh as a country of floods, starvation and internal strife. But it remains a favourite tourist destination with many people. This website is an excellent starting point for prospective tourists, giving another picture of the country.

This is the self-styled canonical list of weird band names and it's exactly what it says it is. Alphabetically from "A Box of Fish With Tartar Sauce" through the "Rubber Nipple Salesmen" to the "Zulu Leprechauns". There's also a link to every band that has an active web page. Surreal but diverting.
