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 car salesman was jailed for life at the Old Bailey for stabbing and burning alive a customer for whom he had developed a 'fatal attraction'.

Winston Goulbourne, 24, of South Norwood, south London, became obsessed with Gillian Bennett, 33, a travel agent, of Streatham, south London, after she bought a Fiat Uno from the west London dealership where he worked. He killed her after she rejected him when he called at her home in the early hours in December last year.
