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.For the first time in thirteen years, every London Underground line will be closed for 24 hours as four unions strike over the start of the all-night tube service set to start in September.
All 11 lines - Bakerloo, Central, Circle, District, Hammersmith & City, Jubilee, Metropolitan, Northern, Piccadilly Victoria and Waterloo & City - across 270 stations will be closed for 24 hours from 6pm on Wednesday, with services set to still be disrupted come Friday morning.
Members of the Rail, Maritime and Transport (RMT), Unite and Transport and Salaried Staff Association (TSSA) will walk out from 6pm, while members of Aslef, which represents tube drivers, will walk out for 24 hours from 9.30pm.
