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.Having discarded the dry/wet dichotomy, intelligent Heathites should stop pretending that there is any longer a danger of falling leftwards into the jaws of Leviathan ("What we are up against", 5 October). Why don't they stay ideologically exactly where they are - and cross the floor to join New Labour?

Baroness Castle attempting to unify Britain with Europe's breath test limit of 50mg of alcohol with 100ml of blood? ("Castle breath test plea", 5 October). Is this the same Barbara Castle who campaigned so vigorously against our joining the EC in order to avoid harmonising with crippling and draconian red-tape?

The front over of your Real Life section features a picture of a strangely elongated wraith, naked save for a "wearable, commercial" wraparound piece of wet muslin (5 October). This is not real life as I know it.
