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.

A family of four have been found dead at their home, Scotland Yard said yesterday. An ambulance crew called to the house in Ashness Gardens, Greenford, west London on Sunday night are receiving counselling.

The bodies of a man and woman, and a boy and girl aged under 10, are believed to have suffered knife wounds. The family has not been formally identified. Detectives think the man killed his family and then himself. Scotland Yard said the deaths are being treated as murder. Post mortems will take place today.
