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.

White: 2000 Domaine Galetis Chardonnay/ Viognier, Vin de Pays d'Oc, Marks & Spencer, £3.99,

From an estate near Carcassonne in the south of France, this unoaked dry white retains the light spiciness and fresh- fruit character of the blend. Chilled well down, it makes a versatile summer white for drinking on its own or with a salade niçoise.

Red: 2000 Sainsbury's Moroccan Syrah, Beni M'Tir, £3.99

A bit of a surprise, this delightful Sainsbury's own-label red from Morocco. Gone is any authentic whiff of camel dung, replaced instead by a modern, resoundingly vivid, raspberry-fruity style that is totally fresh, spicy and eminently gluggable. Enjoy.
