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 ultimate in hash-related design chic is the Silver Palm Leaf pipe. As slim as a credit card, it fits neatly (and discreetly) into wallets and would fool even the most razor-eyed cop. The work of urban hippies James Hassal and Nick Montefiore, the pipe was recently chosen from thousands of products to feature on BBC2's Design Awards, and has been selling out in the Conran shop and happy hippy huts in coastal towns alike.

'Its name derives from the fact that it's silver, it fits in the palm of your hand, and the inside of it looks a bit like the ribs of a leaf,' Hassal explains. Well, that's all right then. Retailing at pounds 29.95, the Silver Palm Leaf is easy to use, easy to clean, and, above all, easy to conceal . . .

For stockists call Silver Palm Leaf (081-964 9229).
