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: Giles Smith ('Did anybody hear that?', 25 March), alleges that the words, 'Isn't this where . . . ?' appear as a mistake at the end of Pink Floyd's The Wall. Not so.

If the first side of the album is listened to very closely, the words '. . . I came in' can be heard, making the sentence: 'Isn't this where I came in?' The album is meant to be circular, indicating the viscous and perpetual cycle of human existence, one of the points of this 'concept' album.

I am just able to hear this on my second-hand LP copy, not digitally remastered or stuck on bits of silver plastic]

Yours sincerely,
