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.

Q. For the last 25 years I have been holidaying with my University mates, plus kids and now grandkids. The adults are going to the Naples area in late October for four days.

The six adults from the South had to book the planes quickly as the BA flights were going fast. We saw that easyJet flew from Liverpool, but they have not released the flights yet, any idea when they will?

Or any ideas how the Northern lot (Stafford and Liverpool) can get there - as at this rate it will be just the Southern lot going on their own for the first year for 25 years.

A. In fact easyJet is flying from Liverpool to Naples on 26 October, and it’s very cheap - £53 when I checked. That’s because it’s the last flight of the year. Coming back, the “Northern lot” could fly easyJet or BA to Gatwick and make their way by rail from there. But it would be more fun and probably cheaper to get the train to Rome and fly from there to Birmingham (Monarch) or Manchester (Jet2 or Ryanair). Probably the Staffs people should do the former, the Liverpool lot the latter.

But book soon – it’s half term and prices will only go up.
