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.

DERYCK FOX, the Bradford Northern skipper, kept his nerve and his team in the title chase with a drop goal two minutes from time at Sheffield Eagles yesterday. Bradford's 29-28 victory kept them second in the table behind Warrington and they were made to fight all the way by a Sheffield side inspired by the Frenchman David Fraisse, who scored two tries. Brimah Kebbie scored a hat-trick for Bradford.

The stand-off Martin Pearson's four goals, together with a fine individual try, proved the difference for Featherstone as they shared six touchdowns with visiting Halifax. Featherstone won 20-16.

The Wales v France match in Cardiff, scheduled for next month, has been put back to Friday 4 March. The original fixture clashed with a Five Nations rugby union international on the same weekend.
