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 National Auricula and Primula Society is holding a show today at Church House, Holy Trinity Church, London SW7. Get there by way of Lime Tree Walk on the east side of the Brompton Oratory. Auriculas bloom in some of the strangest colours you will find in the flower kingdom: weird, green-edged petals, browns, purples, dust- covered blues. At this show you will also be able to see some of the recently revived striped auriculas, the flowers of 18th-century Dutch paintings. The show is open 2.30- 5pm. Admission pounds 1. For details of membership of the society ( pounds 7 a year), contact the secretary at 67 Warnham Court Rd, Carshalton Beeches, Surrey SM5 3ND, enclosing a stamped, addressed envelope.
