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.Shay Given looks set to leave Aston Villa to go in search of first-team football after losing his starting place for most of the season to the American Brad Guzan.
"I had a meeting with [manager] Paul Lambert," said the 37-year-old goalkeeper, who is not in the Republic of Ireland squad to face England on Wednesday. "We both agreed that I should be playing first-team football. And that's not happening at Villa right now."
Given made just two Premier League starts for Villa last season. He joined the club in January 2011, signing a five-year deal.
