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.

Halifax drew level with St Helens in third place in the Centenary Championship with a 22-18 victory over Bradford Bulls yesterday while Sheffield Eagles made it eight League wins in a row with a 42-12 success at Castleford.

Halifax's teenage winger Damien Munro impressed, scoring a superb try 10 minutes from the end of the Yorkshire derby, played at Huddersfield's McAlpine Stadium.

Munro, playing only because of Halifax's extensive injury list, raced over in the far corner to seal his side's first away success over Bradford in nine games.

Sheffield, the form team in the Championship, claimed their first victory at Wheldon Road, scoring eight tries in the process.
