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 Admiral Codrington is so quintessentially the Sloane Pub as to be almost frightening. Its dark wood-on-wood interior is inhabited at all times with a thoroughly washed, straight-haired clientele talking about what they will be doing out of town at the weekend - even if it is the weekend. Its brighter back room, a conservatory with tiled floor and stripped benches, rarely fills up, though, except at half-term, when the cleanest rebels you ever saw will be sitting in each other's laps and talking about raves. Close to shopping havens like Walton Street and the Conran shop, though parking for the GTi is scarce.
