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.Labour MPs Stella Creasy's question to the Prime Minister about private financing of public services didn't go down well with Conservative MPs.
The backbencher asked the question about the amount of money her local hospital had to pay in PFI fees during PMQs.
She was met with a wall of sound from Tories presumably pointing out that the policy was championed by the last Labour Government.
The Walthamstow MP and former Labour deputy leader candidate didn't let the shouting stop her from asking her question, however.
After Ms Creasy had finished her question David Cameron responded that the Government was trying to unpick the problems which he said were caused by the last Labour government.
