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 months of flirting, fighting and fornicating for the UK public’s viewing pleasure, Love Island has entered its final full week of broadcast spearheaded by... the annual lie detector episode.

So, how did it all go down? Well, like a lead balloon mostly. The boys were put to the test as their partners wrote questions in the hope they'd pass with flying colours. Josh and Wes did which left Kaz and Megan with big old grins on their faces.

Things went a bit awry as Paul, new Jack and Dr Alex stepped up to the plate with the former leaving Laura frustrated as the lie detector revealed he could have his head swayed on the outside.

The same went for Jack who, despite the lie detector test revealing he not only loves Dani but wants to be with her forever, came to blows with her after failing the question: "Would you be tempted by other girls on the outside?"

We here at The Independent are dedicated to the cause and live-blogged all the lie detector results which you can catch up with below - please give the live-blog a few seconds to load.


Love Island continues weekdays and Sunday on ITV2 at 9pm.

Hello! So, this time next week, you'll be midway through the inevitable prep for that Love Island finale party but before then, we have a whole week of episodes to get through.

As ever, we'll be with you every step of the way so bookmark this page and check back throughout the day for all the updates you need. 

Two words: lie detector

Yes, as teased below, tonight's episode will revisit the lie detector test which is squarely designed to cause rifts in the villa. But will it be strong enough to break up the likes of Jack and Dani or Josh and Kaz?

Remember that kiss between Georgia and Jack? The one that caused a huge controversy. Well, Georgia was made to watch it on discussion show Aftersun and this is what happened:

Alex has frequently said that he’s attracted to ‘natural looking’ women on the show - here's why this is problematic:
