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.

Barclays will hoist a For Sale sign over its businesses in Spain, France, Italy and Portugal when it unveils the findings of its latest strategic review on Thursday.

The lender, which is looking to cut costs across its operations, is under pressure following a series of pay controversies. It will also update investors on its first-quarter trading just days after the head of its US business, Hugh "Skip" McGee, quit. He was replaced by Joe Gold.
