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.Great Britain’s expected victory in the mixed relay at the ITU World Triathlon in Hamburg failed to materialise as the team, featuring Alistair and Jonathan Brownlee, failed to finish.
Britain, who won the event for the past two years, led at halfway as Alistair (above) handed over to Non Stanford with a 17-second lead. But they received a 10sec penalty for an infringement by the Olympic champion before Stanford crashed towards the end of her bike leg. Germany won the event.
In the individual events on Saturday Jonathan Brownlee pipped his brother to victory, while in the women’s race Stanford was second and team-mate Jodie Stimpson third.
