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.

MARTIN TAYLOR (left), the former chief executive of Barclays, is to join the US investment bank Goldman Sachs as a part-time special adviser this autumn.

Mr Taylor, who quit his pounds 750,000 job at Barclays last year, will work one or two days a week for Goldman Sachs, advising the bank on its operations in Europe and Asia.

Since leaving Barclays, Mr Taylor, 47, has taken up a non-executive directorship at Antigenics, a small pharmaceutical company which is developing a treatment for cancer. It also emerged last week that he is working on a part-time, unpaid basis for the Government, advising it on how to stem the pounds 2bn loss of tax through tobacco smuggling.
