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: Nobody seems to have noticed the demolition, this week, of Archbishop Carey's "stride into the moral maze" (6 July), in which he ridiculed any but "spiritual morality" as worthless. I refer to the hatred, violence, vandalism and arson committed by people in Northern Ireland, in a conflict demonstrably religious in nature, created and inflamed mainly by seeming church-going Christians.

I trust his Grace won't object if those of us who eschew his vaunted "spiritual" morality, and instead cling to our allegedly worthless but non-violent, anti-arson, anti-vandalism and anti-hatred "do-it-yourself" morality, continue in our disreputable and heathen ways?
