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.

The GM Vauxhall Conference has proposed to the Football League that the top three clubs in the Conference should be promoted to the Football League, rather than just the champions as at present.

Dundee have signed Jim McInally, the 33-year-old former international midfielder, from their neighbours Dundee United where he was player-coach, for a nominal fee of around pounds 20,000.

Eendracht Aalst, the Belgian First Division club, face allegations of attempted bribery to fix matches. The Belgian football union's controlling committee, which is considering the allegations, will announce its decision on Tuesday.
