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.

n It's a victory for common sense. Grey is a dreadful colour. George Cohen, a member of the 1966 World Cup winners, is happy England are reverting to red shirts for the change strip.

n There's a line of thought that some fandangled medical treatment in a chamber helps it heal quicker. David Lloyd, the England cricket coach, gives a less than technical explanation about Nasser Hussain's plans to use an oxygen chamber for his broken finger.

n I can imagine a few heads are coming off out there and that the toys are being thrown out of the prams. Nobody likes getting their arse kicked hole after hole. Greg Turner describes the reaction to conditions in the Scottish Open at Carnoustie.

n The English game is different. You have to give 100 per cent all the time. Ruud Gullit warns Gianluca Vialli what to expect when he plays for Chelsea.

n If Damon wins he will equal my 20 victories but I have two world championships so doesn't that tell you something? Michael Schumacher fights back off the track.
