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.

A recently conducted YouGov survey asked over 1,600 people questions about how happy they were with their lives.

The survey found that, overall, public optimism has increased considerably in the last five years.

The British public are feeling safer and more secure – and worrying less about things like money and future job opportunities.

People from Scotland are especially content with their lives at the moment – though they did report having more concerns about the government than people in England overall.

Londoners are also rather content, while people from the Midlands are the least pleased with how their lives are going.

Can we guess where you’re from according to how happy you are?

Take the quiz to find out.

How did we do?
