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.

John Carew has not ruled moving to Stoke on a permanent basis, after completing a loan move from Aston Villa yesterday.

The 31-year-old, who could make his debut at Fulham today, is out of contract at Villa Park in the summer and believes a successful four months at the Britannia Stadium could result in him staying on.

"If I'm happy and the club is happy, if I enjoy it and it goes well enough, then we can decide in the summer," Carew said. "The important thing is to make the most of this opportunity. Tony Pulis has shown great confidence in getting me here so I want to repay that."
