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.

Your support makes all the difference.AN armed robber shot dead by police after he stole pounds 1,600 from a bank was a mercenary for the Muslims in Bosnia.
David Stone, 35, fired at officers as he fled from Barclays Bank in Highgate, north London, on Friday. He tried to escape in a dustcart but was forced to abandon it and ran into a yard where he was shot in the head. Sandra Harvey, his girlfriend's daughter, said yesterday he had been to Bosnia several times to fight.
