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 cast of 'Casualty' are at number 5 in the single charts with a cover version of the 30-year-old Love Affair hit, 'Everlasting Love'.
CHART INFARCTION
As a doctor I'm frequently asked:
"Is that your record at Number 5?"
The simple answer to this is that,
I'm not a doctor
I'm an actor.
And if you include this factor
Cross-infection may occur
Causing bounds of taste to blur.
Claudication in the arts
Following Cloth Ear may lead
To infarction in the charts
As the heart begins to bleed.
The boredom may be terminal
The patent might complain of hearing
Yet another cover version
This can mean
Substantial risk
If the public buys the disc
Generating lots of cash
The luvvies have another bash
Which is often problematic
As the anaesthesia's deep
But the end is undramatic
Since the patient dies in sleep.
