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.

MIKE TEAGUE is set to return for a fourth spell at Gloucester. The 34-year-old back-row forward left the club two years ago along with fellow players Mike Hamlin - who has since moved back - and Kevin Dunn.

Now Teague, who has also played for Stroud and Cardiff, wants to complete his first- class career at Gloucester after being released by Moseley.

'Mike approached us and I have spoken to him,' Barrie Corless, Gloucester's director of rugby, said. 'We would be interested in having him around because he is the sort of experienced player we have been missing on the pitch and on the training field. His attitude and commitment would be a model for young players.'

Teague, who played 275 games for Gloucester, has made 27 England appearances and two for the Lions.

Keith Richardson, the former Gloucester boss, has agreed to become head of coaching at Harlequins. Richardson, who left Gloucester in May after seven years at Kingsholm, will succeed the Australian Bob Templeton.
