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.

Oldham's utility forward Matthew Munro is out of their Super League meeting with Wigan at Central Park tomorrow after being suspended for one game and fined pounds 150 by the Rugby Football League's disciplinary committee. Munro was referred to the disciplinary committee by the League's executive committee after they viewed a video recording of Oldham's home win over Warrington last Sunday.

Munro was charged with deliberately swinging his arm at the head of an opponent in an incident which resulted in the Warrington winger, Mark Forster, being carried off on a stretcher.

Three players have been suspended following last week's Second Division game between Bramley and York. The Bramley pair, Kenny Hill and Glen Freeman, collected respective two and three-match bans while York's Rich Hayes was suspended for two games.
