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.

Barclays to cut securities jobs

BARCLAYS is to make 300 staff redundant at its global securities centres at London and Trowbridge in Wiltshire, according to UNiFI, the banking union. The job cuts follow Barclays' decision to exit the global securities business in 1996. The redundancies at London and Trowbridge had previously been expected in September of this year, but Barclays' staff were informed earlier this week that the timetable had been brought forward. Barclays said it expected more than half the redundancies to be voluntary.
