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.Rightmove declared yesterday that the "toughest property market conditions in a generation" were behind it as it had returned to growth.
The property website said its site had seen the most visitors in its nine-year history on 10 August as the housing market recovery picked up pace. Rightmove's figures for the six months to 30 June revealed the impact of the property sector slump earlier this year, with pre-tax profits down 8 per cent to £18.2m. But the company said steadily improving conditions over the summer had driven higher membership numbers, and predicted it would beat City forecasts for full-year results, although its earnings may "not quite" match last year's £41m.
