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.

Great Britain bounced back from defeat against India to defeat previously unbeaten Pakistan 3-2 in the Sultan Azlan Shah Cup.

Wimbledon forward Rob Moore put Great Britain ahead from close range in the eighth minute and, although penalty-corner expert Sohail Abbas equalised from a set piece, Jonty Clarke restored the lead with the help of a deflection.

The Reading winger scored his second seven minutes from time, diving at the far post to convert Iain Mackay's cross. Haseem Khan Abdul responded swiftly for Pakistan but Great Britain held on.
