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.If the weather has put a spring in your step, there’s something that might just make you even more excited: Easter weekend is 15-18 April.
Whether you celebrate the holiday’s religious sentiments or not, for many the food is one of the main appeals – think roast lamb, Simnel cake, hot cross buns, and of course Easter eggs. And there’s one destination that is a go-to for special occasions, and it is of course M&S.
Ahead of the four-day weekend, the retailer has just launched its range of Easter hampers. Everyone’s favourite character, Percy Pig, has of course been given his very own gift set, and there is a range of luxurious hampers that are bound to get you even more egg-static about the four-day weekend.
And there’s good news for plant-based eaters, as they can expect fruity hot cross buns, chocolate eggs and so much more.
Better still, if you’re not with a friend, family member, or loved one this Easter, all of M&S’s treats can be sent directly to a recipient. Get your orders in early though because we predict a sell-out, and you won’t want to miss out on these egg-cellent creations.
