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.

Love Island fans, rejoice – the hit dating competition is returning to ITV2.

A whole new group of young, love-hungry hopefuls are set to enter the Majorcan villa as Laura Whitmore is back to take care of hosting duties.

Here at The Independent, we have made some early predictions on how long each of the starting hopefuls will last on the show.

Someone who aims to make it all the way to the end is 27-year-old Andrew Le Page, a Dubai-based real estate agent from Guernsey.

On his reasons for entering the villa, Andrew stated that it’s a matter of fortunate timing: he’s “actually single for once” after his last relationship ended when he emigrated to the United Arab Emirates.

“I moved to Dubai and she stayed in Guernsey but fair play to her, she’s doing her own thing which is really good,” he explained. “It just wasn’t going to work so we decided to go our separate ways.”

According to Andrew, his family and friends see him as “someone quite cheeky, confident, a bit silly, doesn’t take life too seriously and who’s going to have a laugh with it.”

When it comes to who he’d like to “have a laugh with it” with, Andrew is looking for someone whose personality works well with his – but he hopes to avoid a love interest who’s prone to “causing arguments”.

On what gives him “the ick” in a relationship, Andrew said: “Someone with a really bad personality and someone who’s way over the top. If I just can’t deal with you, I just don’t really want to deal with you.”

But, when he does find the right person, he guarantees he’ll treat her well.

“When I’m with someone I’m very loyal,” Andrew said, ahead of the show’s launch. “I’m a good boyfriend as when I’m with someone I’m all for them.”

Love Island returns Monday 6 June at 9pm on ITV2.
