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.

Stoke City aim to recover from successive home defeats when they travel to Maccabi Tel Aviv tonight. Losses against Liverpool and Newcastle United in the last eight days ended the club's proud record at the Britannia but tonight's trip to Israel offers Tony Pulis's side the opportunity to return to form before Sunday's league trip to Bolton Wanderers.

Danny Higginbotham could make a first appearance after seven months out with a knee injury, although Ryan Shawcross and Marc Wilson are injured, Cameron Jerome suspended and Jonathan Woodgate ineligible. "Everybody who's got a pair of boots comes into my thoughts," Pulis said.
