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.

Queens Moat Houses, the troubled hotel company, also received a stay of execution from its bondholders yesterday.

Holders of QMH's 101 4 per cent debenture stock voted not to enforce the security they hold over the company's assets. Interest was due to be paid on the bonds today.

QMH seems to have won the support of its banks for another two months. The steering committee of the group's lenders has recommended continuing the existing financial arrangements.

The resolutions that gave QMH's management more time received the overwhelming backing of bondholders who voted at yesterday's meeting.
