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.Why not do the nation a favour - scrap the Millennium Dome and give the people of Montserrat a fair deal ("Montserrat leaders...", 24 August).

When in Hong Kong I saw that Feng Shui really does work ("Feng Shui reaches the DIY superstore ..." 24 August). I don't believe in the supernatural forces it invokes: but I saw buildings positioned and constructed on principles other than greed and profit. It's the intervention of human imagination than makes the difference.

In "Peter's summer hols" (24 August) you say that last month Peter Mandelson "even appeared on the front page of the Times holding a smiling child". Not in my copy. There it was Mandelson who was smiling - the child had a look between amazement and horror.

So "Television is losing its young audience" (24 August). This might worry executives and producers, but to me it's the best news in your paper - after the Test match victory of course.

"From ocean to ocean, via a land's desert heart" (Travel & Money, 24 August) on the Indian Pacific Railway was illustrated by a photograph of the much older railway at Kuranda on the edge of the Queensland rainforest.
