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.

Down Under for less

A return fare to Australia for £549 this week makes a 10,000-mile trip Down Under ever more accessible. If you're planning a trip to Oz anytime between 1 May and 30 June, the deal could save you at least £200 on your average fare. Fly with China Southern Airlines from any of 14 airports in the UK – including Heathrow – and land at either Sydney or Melbourne (pictured). Book by 30 April.

Be quick though – the deal ends tomorrow.
