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 George Corston

Sir: Your leading article "The Tory Party in search of a new vision" (24 June) states:

The other way of reading this leadership contest is that the Tories are in trouble because they have dared to put their finger on an issue that deeply troubles the nation: the unresolved issue of what we want Britain to stand for in Europe.

Europe certainly troubles the Tory Party, but the majority of people I speak to do not consider Europe the main issue.

We are more concerned with the NHS, social services, education and law and order. Perhaps that is what the leadership contest should be about - or much better, these should be the issues of an early general election.

Yours faithfully,

George Corston
