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.

Chris McCausland and his Strictly Come Dancing partner, Dianne Buswell, shared an emotional moment after the pair pulled off their Quickstep routine.

Dianne, fighting back tears, said how meaningful it was to see Chris step out of his comfort zone: “His safe space has always been down here, so for him to stand up... it makes me quite emotional.”

The pair’s performance earned them impressive scores of 7, 8, 8, and 9, giving them a total of 32.
