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.This morning the Guardian asked readers to tweet what they put in their children's lunchboxes - ingredient lists and pictures - prompting a #gdnlunches hashtag that was quickly spoofed. Here's a selection of the best:
@ms_moss: Fried hummus in a coulis of swan-oil infused raspberry leaf tea, with almond-scented biscotti, which I confess I found in Waitrose
@Minimorticia: Confit of duck with sauteed wild mushrooms, half bottle of claret and a curly wurly
@Jannism: Ballotine of partridge, roasted fennel mousse quinnels, popcorn dauphinoise, petit filous and a kitkat
@wolfalice: Fired seed balep korkun, broth of named mackerel ("David"), small leafs
@graemehunter: Despair and Granola
@hatterneil: A pot noodle, 20 B&H and a can of shandy bass.
@woodo79: Sous vide pheasant breast bruschetta, carrot and tomato smoothie and organic chickpea salad
