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 next few days will bring largely cloudy conditions across most of the UK, with sunny spells in some parts of the country and heavy rain in others.

Temperatures throughout this period are expected to be warmer than they were last week, reaching the low-20s in the south and southeast of England.

Some heavy rain is expected early on Monday in the northwest, moving southwards. There may be fog patches in the south, but these will clear away to a brighter morning - however, it will become increasingly cloudy throughout the day.

In London, there will be some early sunny spells but cloud will build up through the morning and into the afternoon. It is expected to remain largely dry but cloudy overnight, and temperatures will be mild.

According to the Met Office, Tuesday will bring some sunny spells for east Scotland and northeast England, but heavier rain in the north later in the day. Weather conditions are otherwise mostly cloudy with light rain for western coasts and hills.

More sunny spells and showers are expected on Wednesday, but the clouds will make way for a much clearer, sunnier day for many on Thursday although temperatures will take a slight dip then.
