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.

Sir: What Nicholas Keeble (Letters, 25 November) did not say about the 'Emergency Toilets' notice on the M40 is that even if you last out for the indicated 20 miles, your relief will be short- lived. Having left the motorway at that point you will find there is no way of rejoining it. When I did this not long ago, I had to make a 20-mile detour to continue my journey north. I think motorway madness on this whole road began with the planners.

Yours faithfully,
