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.Behind a discreet and faintly intimidating entrance lurks a room whose dark oak panelling, sofas and oil paintings could easily make for a mothballed clubbiness. In fact, this comfortable mid-Atlantic bar has a decided air of fashion about it.
The men may be in shirtsleeves but they're Turnbull and Asser shirts and even the mood lighting can't conceal the glint of Rolexes on tanned media wrists.
The only danger with meeting here is that you may well enjoy yourself too much to bother with the Proms at all.
The drinks are less expensive than the clientele: wine starts at pounds 8.50 a bottle and champagne at pounds 22.50 (cheaper than the Albert Hall). Deep-fried courgettes
with anchovy mayonnaise are a necessity at pounds 2.25. Pub hours.
