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.

They claim to be “perfection personified”, “effortlessly superior” and “a ‘great’ of their generation”, but what happens to Apprentice winners after Lord Sugar hires them?

All six of the first Apprentice winners are no longer working for Lord Sugar after leaving their £100,000 per annum salaries at his company to work elsewhere.

Only the two most recent winners, Ricky Martin and Tom Pellereau, are currently working in partnership with Lord Sugar, who has invested in their business ideas after a format shake-up in 2011.

Stella English, 2010 winner, hit the headlines recently when she unsuccessfully sued Lord Sugar earlier this year for unfair dismissal. The mother-of-two from Whitstable, Kent said she that her career was only “just beginning” and had plans to launch a clothing line.

Michelle Dewberry, 2006 winner, is the only apprentice to have developed a career in TV presenting alongside motivational speaking, while first ever winner Tim Campbell received an MBE in 2012 for services to enterprise culture.
