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.DOMINIC CORK last night repeated his threat to leave Derbyshire, despite the county's committee backing down from its confrontation with him.
Cork had been told to decide by yesterday whether he wanted to continue as captain. But the ultimatum was withdrawn and committee member Les Elliott will now meet Cork in an attempt to resolve the matter.
Cork has agreed to the meeting, but has no intention of backing down. "My position is unchanged from what it was in October," he said. "Unless I am granted the authority other captains have been given, and which I was promised, and unless the two people I believe have undermined my position are removed from influence, I will seek to leave."
