Your support helps us to tell the story

This election is still a dead heat, according to most polls. In a fight with such wafer-thin margins, we need reporters on the ground talking to the people Trump and Harris are courting. Your support allows us to keep sending journalists to the story.

The Independent is trusted by 27 million Americans from across the entire political spectrum every month. Unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock you out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. But quality journalism must still be paid for.

Help us keep bring these critical stories to light. Your support makes all the difference.

When Tony Blair has finished George Dangerfield's The Strange Death of Liberal England about the Liberal Party in the early years of this century ("Passion and Compassion", 19 January), he may care to look at Ray Challinor's book covering the same period: The Origins of British Bolshevism. This shows how the conditions which caused a collapse of the cross-class politics of the liberals led to a dramatic rise of the left. It should give Mr Blair something to think about as the election approaches.

Keith Davies, Cardiff
