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.

Duncan Ferguson, who retired from football five years ago, has returned to the club where he was idolised by the supporters in a coaching capacity.

The former Scotland and Everton striker, 39, well known for his fits of aggression and problems with authority, has made the first steps to becoming an authority figure himself by working at Everton assisting Alan Irvine, the club's academy manager, for several weeks.

"I didn't foresee him going into coaching when I had him as a player," David Moyes, the Everton manager, said. "But Duncan has been away for five years and I think he misses the smell of football a wee bit. He's putting the hours in."
