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.MIRROR Group Newspapers is to move out of its headquarters at Holborn Circus after Grant Thornton, the receivers of Robert Maxwell Estates, which owns the building, rejected MGN's bid to buy it.
It is understood MGN offered less than pounds 30m for the 1960s building, which was valued two years ago at more than pounds 70m. MGN has said it will leave the offices. Grant Thornton, which is already suing MGN for unpaid rent, said it would take MGN to court if it did so.
MGN is considering three alternative sites - Canary Wharf, Thomas More Square in Wapping and the Ark in Hammersmith. A decision is likely to be made next week.
