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.There's nothing less festive than an electronic card email late on Christmas Eve.
Traditionalists take heart though; to stop the technological rot the Royal Mail has released a series of 18 historic posters from the 1940s, 1950s and 1960s. They were beautifully illustrated by some of the period's top graphic designers and artists, such as Graham Sutherland, as part of the "Post Early for Christmas" campaign, but sadly aren't for sale.
The Royal Mail is missing a trick here though, Trending thinks. Who wouldn't want to receive one of these beauties in the post this year? And think of all those lovely postal surcharges they get out of it. Everybody wins.
