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.You can see them coming a mile off. Their slightly crumpled collars are too tight for chubby necks. There's maybe a dribble of custard down the tie from an over-generous portion of spotted dick. That tired suit would benefit from a few days' hanging out on the line. And those well- polished brogues are, frankly, museum pieces.
No, we're not thinking about shabby teachers, whose dress sense Conservatives MPs rushed to condemn this weekend. We're talking about those self-same Tories who have done for shirts what taxidermists did for the gorilla. Our message is simple: it's time for Tory MPs to get unstuffed.
