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.

EALING meet Wimbledon in the women's National League at Barclays Bank Ground, Hangar Lane, tomorrow and with neither club yet clear of relegation problems these old rivals can be expected to provide a few fireworks in a lively London derby, writes Bill Colwill.

Both sides have found goals difficult to come by this season, although Ealing may have moved towards solving their problem with the arrival of New Zealand's Olympic winger, Kate Trolove, who scored four goals against Guildford in the Cup last weekend. Wimbledon, under their coach, Angela Cannell, a former Ealing player, still rely too heavily on Michelle Clark for goals.

Both teams are captained by their goalkeepers. Wimbledon by the former England indoor keeper, Denise Orford, and Ealing by the Scottish international, Sue Lawrie, who said yesterday: 'With the full squad available, we are anticipating a fast, hard game against a well-drilled Wimbledon side.'
