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.

Under a Fiver
2007 Misterio Oak Aged Malbec, Finca Flichman
Made from pure malbec and aged in oak, this is a ripe, but not overpowering, juicy red made from Argentina's signature grape, with generous plum supported by damsony acidity.
£4.99, Morrisons

Under a Tenner
Veuve Edouard Champagne
Treat yourself to a cut-price champagne this Easter: this attractive example doesn't pretend to be Cristal, but has light, crisp, youthful and lemony flavours.
£9.99, normally £19.99, Somerfield, until Tuesday

Splash Out
2001 Clos du Mont Olivet Châteauneuf du Pape
This classic southern Rhône blend has a leathery aromatic complexity and mellow tannins, with spice-infused richness and a succulence that avoids blandness.
£14.99, Majestic
