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.NATIONAL Home Loans, the troubled mortgage lender, has recruited two of the senior managers made redundant by Nationwide Building Society last year, writes Paul Durman.
Christopher French, who was Nationwide's divisional director for internal audit until last summer, has become NHL's chief operating officer and Brian Murkin, who was the society's divisional director for management services, has joined as divisional director, finance.
Jonathan Perry, NHL's chairman, said the Nationwide connection of the new recruits was a coincidence; the two men were recruited in different ways.
Mr French will take on the running of NHL's main Solihull operation. For the past year this job has been handled by David Hoare of Talisman Management. Mr Perry said Mr Hoare and Talisman would continue to work for NHL, reviewing systems and future strategy.
NHL lost pounds 146.4m last year but Mr Perry said: 'We've moved a lot of roadblocks in the last eight or nine months. We're beginning to get this show on the road.'
