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.Bobbie Goulding is staying on as French coach after withdrawing his threat to quit. Goulding offered his resignation after the 38-18 defeat by the second-string England Knights.
"There's too much friction between the Catalans and the French Federation and it's not fair on the boys who are caught in the middle," he said.

The Federation, however, has asked the ex-Test half-back to go on.
"The federation made it clear they don't want me to resign," he said. "They want me to carry on and I have their full backing."
