Your support helps us to tell the story

This election is still a dead heat, according to most polls. In a fight with such wafer-thin margins, we need reporters on the ground talking to the people Trump and Harris are courting. Your support allows us to keep sending journalists to the story.

The Independent is trusted by 27 million Americans from across the entire political spectrum every month. Unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock you out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. But quality journalism must still be paid for.

Help us keep bring these critical stories to light. Your support makes all the difference.

The bag

Trunki launches a limited-edition F1 Lotus bag for budding Lewis Hamiltons on Friday. As you'll see from page 81, Formula 1 racing is back for the 2013 season, so they'll be ahead of the curve (£50; trunki.co.uk).

The route

BA is selling its first tickets on the Airbus A380 for the Heathrow to Los Angeles route starting on 15 October. Return fares from £499; Heathrow to Hong Kong starts on 15 November (ba.com).

The campsite

Tom's Eco Lodge is a new luxury campsite on the Isle of Wight: safari-style lodges with beds, barbecues and sofas, on the farm that hosted the legendary 1970 Isle of Wight Festival (tomsecolodge.com).
