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.

THISTLE HOTELS has two new non-executive directors, courtesy of Brierley Investments of New Zealand, which has a 46 per cent shareholding in the company.

Tan Sri Quek Leng Chan and Rupert Morley have been appointed to replace the two existing nominees, Rodney Price and Paul Collins.

Tan Sri Quek Leng Chan is chairman of the Hong Leong Group in Malaysia and of Camerlin Ltd, a major shareholder in Brierley Investments. Mr Morley is the operations director of Brierley's London Office.

Thistle Hotels, which owns one of the most spectacularly ugly hotels in Britain, opposite the Tower of London, has also appointed Andrew Bould, chief operating officer, to the board.
