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.New Year revellers will spend more money staying at home tomorrow evening than if they go out to celebrate the beginning of 2011, new research shows.
An increasing number of people plan to spend a night in with family and friends – up from 55 per cent to 72 per cent since 2007, a survey of more than 2,000 adults by Post Office Home Insurance indicates.
Some said the cost of celebrating New Year's Eve was the main reason they were not going out, others blamed bad weather, while one-third simply preferred staying at home.
People partying at home are set to spend an average of £95 each on food and drink, compared with £73 for those planning to go to a club and £57 in a pub.
