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.

LOVE him or hate him, you have to admire the chutzpah of Andrew Cohen, chief executive of Betterware. His reaction to the bear raids that have hurt Betterware's share price is to bring forward the group's results to this Tuesday.

So, one must assume the figures will be good. The market is expecting a 20 per cent or so increase on half-year profits to pounds 7.5m on top of the 94 per cent hike in the most recent full-year figures.

Doubts persist about the basis for Betterware's European expansion. The shares rallied last week but, at 206p compared with a high of 278p in July, must be worth buying.
