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.

A JEALOUS lover threw his girlfriend into the Thames in a fit of drunken rage the night an old flame kept ringing her mobile phone during an evening out, a court was told yesterday.

British Telecom IT expert Liam Devine, who tried to jump in to rescue her, wept in the dock as he was jailed for sixteen weeks at Bow Street, London. Siobhan Kilmurray escaped with just minor injuries after the thirty foot drop.
