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.ONE of the most sensitive jobs in the business world is shortly to be advertised, as the EC Commission seeks a successor to Andreas Kees, secretary of its monetary committee who is to retire shortly.
The new secretary must maintain the strict wall of secrecy surrounding the committee, which comprises central bankers and treasury officials and meets to determine the fate of currencies in the exchange rate mechanism. Timings and locations of the meetings are rarely dislosed while even greater secrecy is applied to emergency sessions, such as the one last weekend to devalue the Liberty staff cut
