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.

Volvo reports drop in profits

Profits from Volvo, the Swedish car and commercial vehicle maker fell from SKr16.4bn (pounds 1.5bn) to SKr13.1bn, in line with analysts forecasts. Although sales increased, forward order books weakened towards the end of the year. Healthy operating income from Volvo's truck and construction equipment divisions helped to offset a poorer performance from the company's car-making business.
