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.

Burger King is offering £1.99 burgers to celebrate the start of the first European Women’s Football Championship to be staged in England since 2005.

Available exclusively through the fast food retailer’s app on Thursday 7 July, Tuesday 10 July and Friday 15 July, savings of up to £4 can be made.

Diners can select from a Chicken Royale, Vegan Royale, Bacon Double Cheeseburger, Whopper, Plant-based Whopper or Crispy Chicken.

The offer follows England’s winning start at the EURO 2022 campaign, after Beth Mead’s first-half goal secured a 1-0 win over Austria on Wednesday.

To get your hands on a cheap burger, all you need to do is download the fast food giant’s app and order your meal through there.

It’s not the first time Burger King has offered discounted burgers this year.

In March, it gave out free Vegan Royales - the plant-based version of its Chicken Royale burger - to celebrate the launch of its first meat-free restaurant in the UK.

Burger King launched the vegetarian and vegan restaurant earlier this year and it was open for a limited time only.

The pilot restaurant was located in London’s Leicester Square, and saw the entire menu switched to meat-free.

In total, there were 15 new meat-free items on the menu. These included a “Cheeze and Bakon” burger, a Plant-based Bakon Double Cheeeze XL burger and a Vegan Cheeeze and Bakon Royale burger.

There was also a Vegan Nugget Burger on its menu, along with a Plant-based Double Cheeezeburger, Plant-based Cheeeze and Bakon Whopper, as well as Vegan Chilli Cheeeze Bites.

In April, the chain gave away thousands of free Whoppers after an “app glitch”, and in May more Whoppers were given to customers to celebrate “Whopper Day”.
