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.

Tennis has a certain appeal for the type of woman who likes to continue wearing her dark glasses indoors. If you've ever fancied yourself as the Princess of Wales, the Cafe Rouge will provide the sort of unthreatening cosmopolitan background you need. The staff wear their aprons with good grace and are flirtatious without dipping into over-familiarity, and their steak baguette is the stuff on which carnivores' dreams are made. Open 10am for breakfast; lunch 12 noon to 4pm, snacks and drinks 'til 6pm, then dinner. Licensed all day for brandy with sugarlumps and a discreet laugh at the other half.

Cafe Rouge, 26 Wimbledon High St SW19 (081-944.5131)
