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.

Carphone Warehouse said it would spin off its TalkTalk broadband business by July 2010 at the latest yesterday as it reported results after a "significant year of achievement".

The mobile phone retailer said it expects to see signs of a consumer recovery by the end of the year, and raised its full-year dividend by 2 per cent to 4.35p. However, the company booked £205m in exceptional charges and writedowns on acquisitions, pushing it to a £72m loss for the year ending 31 March.
