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 Christopher Leaver

Sir: Sorry Germaine! Clearly Germaine Greer is dissatisfied, as a working woman, with everything about the Sainsbury shopping experience ("Never glad confident Sainsbury's again", 10 November). For that we are very sorry. But I should like our customers to know that we take very seriously all criticism, however painful it may be. And your article was, indeed, painful.

It is up to us as shopkeepers to serve every customer as best we can, not just families and the disabled but also, and most emphatically, working women.

Yours,

Christopher Leaver
