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.

Rugby Union

London Scottish are asking the Rugby Football Union to investigate an incident in which John Steele, the Blackheath fly-half, received two fractures to his jawduring a match between the two clubs on 21 October.

The Welsh are to introduce an new tournament with experimental rules in the New Year. The WRU Midweek Competition has been designed to encourage clubs to play attacking and positive rugby and that is reflected in a number of rule changes: six points will be awarded for tries, conversions will be banned and penalty kicks will only be allowed for acts of foul play and offside
