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.Not all houses are selling as quickly as expected, and builders still scratch their heads about what incentives will tempt buyers' jaded palates. Countryside Residential came up with what it must have believed was just the ticket.
Buyers of homes in Crawley, Sussex, and Horley, Surrey, are being offered a free 12-month rail pass into central London.
The way things are going it could be another year before that sort of perk becomes worthwhile. Perhaps they would get more response by offering a free bike?
