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.

This Australian-Caribbean wine-bar brasserie (yes, really) has gained a certain notoriety - or at least publicity - by being the place that serves crocodile. This has obvious attractions for anyone trying to impress their date with a culinary experience of dubious value, though eating crocodile, however well-prepared, is a bit like eating the padding that came with your last personal hi-fi. You could, however, stick to delicious sun chicken (£7.15) or vegetarian dishes at about the £6 mark, and listen to the south London foodies saying things like "my life is full of men who..." while a startlingly tall waiter with dreadlocks fills your life with joy by ambling past your table and asking if you're cool.
