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.

BRITISH REGIONAL Air Lines, which has suffered a disastrous time since floating in the summer at 150p a share, could at last be attracting institutional support.

The shares, down to as low as 33p in October, gained altitude by 6.5p to 60p with, it is thought, stockbroker Albert E Sharp lifting this year's profits forecast 25 per cent to pounds 6m. In 1997 British Regional, now capitalised at only pounds 38.7m, produced profits of pounds 4.2m.
