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.

GEORGE NDAH'S 69th-minute goal was enough to give First Division Swindon Town a 2-1 victory in the home leg of their first round Worthington Cup tie against Wycombe Wanderers last night.

Second Division Wycombe produced a battling display, fighting back after defender Alan Reeves had scored his first goal for the Wiltshire side in the first-half. Paul Read equalised for Wycombel after an hour.

Goalkeeper David Watson came to Barnsley's rescue at Scarborough to ensure his side grabbed a 1-0 cushion thanks to a goal from Ashley Ward.

Arjan de Zeeuw clumsily bundled over Steve Brodie in the box in the 65th minute, but Watson superbly pushed Brodie's penalty away.
