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.Darren Hall became certain of contesting his ninth successive final at the English National Championships in Norwich yesterday when he won his quarter- final comfortably and then Peter Bush, the man he was due to play in today's semi-finals withdrew with an ankle injury, writes James Leigh. Hall, who hopes to extend his record of men's singles titles to seven, will be fresh for today's final while his opponent, either the second seed Anders Nielsen or the third Peter Knowles, is likely to have had a tough semi-final in the morning.
