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.

KAPIL DEV, the highest wicket-taker in history, has been dropped from the Indian team for the six-nation Australasia Cup in Sharjah later this month. Kapil Dev wrote to the Board of Control asking for a break to rest his injured shoulder. Manoj Prabhakar, who injured his heel on the New Zealand tour, arrives in Birmingham tomorrow for the fitness test which will determine whether he will play for Warwickshire. If he fails, they are likely to sign Brian Lara, of the West Indies.

SURREY made a record profit of pounds 260,995 in 1993 - an 18 per cent increase on the previous year - despite spending pounds 306,075 on ground maintenance and safety work at The Oval.
