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.

Shares in Oasis Stores plunged by 73p to a year's low of 267.5p after the fashion retail chain warned that first-half profits would be materially lower than those achieved in the comparable period last year.

In a statement, the company said that sales growth since the year end had been below its "fairly demanding" expectations. In addition, the company said it experienced some pressure on gross profit margins due to a higher level of markdowns than planned.
