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.WALLACE Arnold should not count his chickens. Fifteen years of Conservative government is due to a sophisticated body of Tory voters who a) tell lies, particularly to opinion pollsters; b) employ their own unique form of logic: 'They got us into this mess so I'm voting for them to get us out of it'; and c) vote Tory because opposition parties will destroy the economy, increase taxes, run down the defence industry and negotiate with the IRA. A 28 per cent lead can count for nothing in the strange world of British politics.
