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.

NEARLY 70 Labour MPs yesterday called on the chairman of the Conservative Party, Sir Norman Fowler, to resign his directorship of Group 4 Securitas in the wake of the 'eight escapes of prisoners' from Group 4 Court Services Ltd.

A House of Commons motion which urged him to take that course added that the Government should now suspend all further moves towards privatisation within the criminal justice system.
