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.

Barcelona beat Sevilla 5-2 at Nou Camp last night to steal the Spanish league title on goal difference from Deportivo La Coruna, who only drew 0-0 at home to Valencia after missing a penalty a minute from time. Bangor City, who abandoned the promotion pyramid in English non-league football, are on the verge of winning the League of Wales, and earning a Uefa Cup place, after thrashing Haverfordwest 9-0. The winning margin meant they have bettered the goal difference of the league leaders Inter Cardiff, and they now need only a draw in their final match on Tuesday, at Porthmadog, to take in the title from Inter and claim a European place.
