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.

The Aga Khan's long-awaited return to the British Classics is to be spearheaded by a close relative of Shergar, the Aga's 1981 Derby winner.

The Aga will confirm his intention to renew his involvement in British racing for the first time since 1990 by spending £6,000 in engaging the John Oxx-trained Shemaran at the Derby's second entry stage on Wednesday. The colt finished runner-up on his only start at The Curragh.

n Thursday's meeting at Carlisle is in doubt due to waterlogging. The course will be inspected at 4pm today.
