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.

THE GUINNESS FLEADH

@ finsbury park

It's pronounced "flaah" for your information, but after 10 pints, you can call it what you like. Originally designed nine years ago to celebrate Irish music, and provide an excuse to drink copious amounts of the black stuff, the Guinness Fleadh is now the biggest outdoor music festival in the capital celebrating everything Irish.

Simple Minds headline, with support from Sinead O'Connor, Shane MacGowan and The Popes, Mike Scott, World Party and Dr John.

Saturday 6 June, Finsbury Park, London N4 (0541 500044 credit card/0336 404 909 info) pounds 25
