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.

If you happen to be strolling through Lake Como and fancy popping by the Clooney residence, be warned.

Anyone who leaves their car or boat within 100m of the couple’s two villas could be fined up to €500 (£370).

The legal measure to protect their privacy has been officially declared by the mayor of Laglio, Roberto Pozzi.

The actor bought the Villa Oleandra in the centre of the village for €7.5million in 2002.

A no-go zone was declared around the residences last summer ahead of the couple’s marriage in Venice.
