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.r There was strong speculation of a imminent takeover bid for Fine Decor, the wallpaper company. Shares rose 8p to 169p. Favoured suitor is Vymura, steady at 129p, although there was some talk of a bid being made from Canada. Fine Decor shares have been a disappointing performer since they joined the market at 210p in 1993. The company recently warned it was being squeezed by higher raw material prices and lacklustre consumer demand.
r Dealings in Bullers shares were suspended at 1.25p pending clarification of the giftware and media company's financial position. Bullers lost pounds 394,000 last year, and figures for the first half of 1995 have yet to be released. There are rumours that Derek Holmes, the broker, is about to reverse a profitable Scandinavian media company into Bullers.
