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.

In 1993 he revealed a penchant for Boney M. Last year he ungirthed his not inconsiderable gut. And this time round, he's come clean over his own deeply entrenched sense of puerility. Like we hadn't noticed. Richard Herring's Edinburgh shows have become an annual feast of frivolity, and none more so than this rites-of-passage lager saga. His knack is to come up with a kind of ramshackle post-modern Carry On time and again. Just how funny is the planet "Uranus"? Just how funny is Richard Herring? The two appear to be inextricably linked.
