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.

MEPC confirms tough property market

Britain's second largest property company, MEPC, confirmed the difficult property market yesterday, announcing a decline in its net asset value per share from 473p to 457p.

Profits advanced 10 per cent to pounds 123m, however, allowing the full-year dividend to be maintained at 20p, and the company took the unusual step of reassuring investors that it would be at least sustainable at that level barring unforeseen circumstances. The shares closed 4p lower at 394p.
