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.

From Mr Kenneth S. Williams

Sir: The parade of a pig named "Cedric" outside the British Gas AGM by a Trade Union is an insult to the pig. Pigs only eat as much as they need; they do not demand an extra 75 per cent because pigs on another farm are overfed. Nor do they starve their piglets so that the parents can eat more. Their objective in life is simple - to remain fit and lean so they can pass their genes on to the next generation.

If the directors of British Gas continue with their obsession for ever increasing salaries and share options, they may fail in their primary duty of the survival of British Gas.

Yours faithfully,

KENNETH S. WILLIAMS

Taplow, Buckinghamshire
