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.

Nick Knight posted the season's highest first-class score and his first triple century to put Warwickshire in a commanding position in their County Championship First Division game against Middlesex at Lord's.

Knight, 179 not out overnight, was unbeaten yesterday on 303 when he declared at 608 for 7. Neil Carter (3 for 26) and Dewald Pretorius (1 for 24) reduced the hosts to 28 for 4. They closed on 76 for 5 when bad light intervened, 532 runs behind.
