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.

Your support makes all the difference.The Crown Prince of Dubai has posted stunning footage of the world’s tallest building looming out of a sea of fog.
Hamdan bin Mohammed al-Maktoum shared the clip of the Burj Khalifa on his Instagram account from the top of a neighbouring skyscraper.
The royal, who has millions of followers on his social media accounts, captioned the video: “A world of opportunities lie beneath.”
Fog shrouded the United Arab Emirates earlier this week, with poor visibility causing numerous flight delays.
In July, images posted by the prince of the Dubai royal family taking the London Underground went viral.
Prince al-Maktoum was pictured sitting alongside his father Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid, the ruler of Dubai.
Popularly known as Fazza, the prince graduated from the Royal Military Academy in Sandhurst and studied at the London School of Economics.
