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.

Sailing

Britain, represented by the Royal Ocean Racing Club, finished last in a short 50 mile inshore race against teams competing for the Southern Cross Cup in Sydney, Australia. The Australian national team continues to lead from a regional trio consisting of three boats from Victoria, with the local Middle Harbour Yacht Club in third place. Four more inshore races are due to be completed this week, and the series finishes with the Sydney to Hobart race starting on Boxing Day.
