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.

Chris Adams, the Sussex captain, could see out his career at the club after he was offered a new six-year contract. Tony Pigott, the club's chief executive, said: "It's not just the club that wants to sign him up, he is very keen as well. We have made him an offer and it's up to him to come back."

Mark Taylor, the recently retired Australian Test captain, made an inauspicious return to Sheffield Shield action yesterday, making just nine runs for New South Wales against Queensland. His dismissal triggered a collapse by the NSW batsmen as they were all out for 106 on the first day of their four-day game. In reply Queensland also struggled, closing the day on 159 for 7.
