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.

Vivian Richards, 42, will step out of retirement next season to play for the Denton GS Racing club in the Lee's Brewery Lancashire County League. The West Indian batsman has been signed for at least one season. Meanwhile, in Brisbane, Australia, yesterday New Zealand held out for a 10-run World Series Cup victory over South Africa. Set 257 to win, the South Africans were given a revised total of 229 from 39 overs to chase after an hour's delay for rain and fell short after failing to hit the required 15 runs in the final over.
