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.

Under a fiver: 2003 Santerra Tempranillo, £2.99, Morrisons

Your last chance to take advantage of the £1 off this peppery, juicy, strawberry cup of a Spanish red, which is perfect for barbecues and summer parties. At the same discounted price, its sister, the 2003 Muscat, makes an equally good value summer sipper.

Under a tenner: Santa Rita Medalla Real Sauvignon Blanc, £7.99, Sainsbury's

From Chile's Pacific-influenced Casablanca Valley, this aromatic, cool-climate sauvignon blanc has an intense passion-fruit richness underscored by a trenchantly zesty, grapefruity tang. One for Caesar salad or salad Niçoise.

Splash out: 2002 Peregrine Pinot Noir, Central Otago, New Zealand, £17.99, Oddbins

From the excellent 2002 vintage in the world's most southerly wine region. Opulent, fresh rhubarb and raspberryish fruit is complemented by a light touch of sweet oak spiciness, making it the ideal burgundy-style red.
