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 longest-running losing sequence came to an end last week when 46 dropped into the winning slot - along with 13, which won for only the fifth time in the 18 months since the Lottery started, while 12 came up for the second week running.

The longest losing sequence now passes to 20, followed by 8, 36 and 39.

The poorest performer remains 39, with just two wins, followed by 13, 20, 36, then 3, 8, 19, and 24.

The forties remain the most successful decile, with 109 outright wins among the last 10 numbers. The thirties have been the least successful decile, with just 87 wins from the 10 numbers. The first decile has produced 92, and the teens 95, while the twenties have produced 97 wins so far.
