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.A number of Premier League players joined hundreds of mourners at the funeral in Bradford of former Wolves and Tottenham defender Dean Richards yesterday.
Richards, who was forced to retire from the game in 2005 through illness, passed away last weekend, aged 36.
Former team-mate Robbie Keane and Blackpool forward James Beattie joined friends, family and former colleagues for the funeral at Bradford Cathedral, Richards' home city. Wolves striker Steve Bull and former Bradford manager Chris Kamara also attended. "Deano was a giant," Kamara said. "He was a star player with a Rolls-Royce engine."
