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.

Even better banking deals are being offered to this year's graduates. Midland Bank is offering first years a three-year, interest-free overdraft of up to pounds 1,500. Applicants do not have to bank with Midland.

Mel C, the Sporty Spice Girl, is said to have been turned down for a mobile phone because the phone company thought she could not pay her bill. If you have been inexplicably turned down for a credit card or whatever, this may well be because you are also regarded as a poor credit risk. Transamerica Lending Company, which specialises in lending to people who get turned down for high street credit, has produced a free guide that shows how to check and change your credit rating.
