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.

Dennis Andries, the three times former world champion, was outpointed for the second time by Terry Dunstan in his quest to regain the British cruiserweight title at York Hall, Bethnal Green, last night. On the same bill Kevin Lueshing took the British welterweight title from Chris Saunders and Jonathan Thaxton, of Norwich, a late replacement, knocked out the British and Commonwealth light-welterweight champion, Paul Ryan, after 2min 18sec.
