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.NOW what have we here? The Prime Minister taking a well-earned break? Lord Archer behaving perfectly normally, as if absolutely nothing has happened? A Tony Blair photo opportunity, canvassing for the vital extra votes of the Scubas for Socialism Group? No, none of those. Hands up anybody who thought it was 'Buzzer' Hadingham, former chairman of the All England Lawn Tennis Club, demonstrating a few alterations in the rules which should make Wimbledon more exciting next year. Sorry, wrong, too. This is a member of Nuremberg's Divers Paradise Club. The divers play tennis under water to learn breathing methods under difficult conditions. They should try being Lord Archer. And who said Germans don't know how to enjoy themselves? Watch out for these guys in the pool on holiday, though.
