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.

Ant and Dec have reacted to the I’m a Celebrity 2022 line-up.

The hosts of the ITV show, which returns to screens next month, have taken centre stage for a new video teasing this year’s celebrities that will participate.

While the channel is keeping the identities of the stars tight-lipped until it begins on Sunday 6 November, several members of the rumoured line-up have landed in Australia.

The new video starring Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly is providing more clues of who the contestants are, with the former at one stage exclaiming: “Now I can’t believe we’ve got him. You don’t know what you’ve let yourself in for, my friend!”

Donnelly calls another contestant “fun and feisty”, while saying of an additional celebrity: “She would hate every minute of it.”

An excited McPartlin says of another star: “Yes! We knew we’d get you on there one of these days!”

Those who are all but confirmed to be a part of this year’s series include DJ Chris Moyles, Loose Women host Charlene White and Love Island star Olivia Attwood.

Meanwhile, Culture Club singer Boy George is expected to become one of the highest-paid celebrities to have ever signed up to the show, receiving a reported £500,000 for his rumoured appearance.
