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 spells in John Lydon's Public Image Limited, and as a guard on the London Underground, Jah Wobble (ne John Wardle) is an unexpectedly serene chap these days. In demand by the likes of The Orb and Primal Scream for his hypnotic, dub-style bass playing, he also pursues his own musical path. The new album is less browser-friendly than its Mercury Award-nominated predecessor Rising Above Bedlam, but there's a similarly large cast list, with vocals from Dolores O'Riordan (replacing Bedlam's Sinead O'Connor), Chaka Demus and Pliers, and Baaba Maal. But it's the rhythms that count: deep, unhurried and underpinned by the marvellous bass of Wobble himself.
