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.

Paul Gascoigne is unlikely to make the England squad for the Tournoi de France, which begins tomorrow, after suffering a badly gashed and bruised right thigh against Poland on Saturday.

Glenn Hoddle, the England coach, wants him to travel but says the injury is likely to keep him out of Wednesday's opening game against Italy. David Beckham, who took an ankle knock in Chorzow, expects to make the trip, and will therefore have to leave behind the woman one newspaper said yesterday is to be his wife - Victoria Adams, better known as Posh Spice.

The players were given yesterday off after their 3.30am return to Luton from Katowice and will reassemble today for the afternoon flight to France.
