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.Michael Howard has been drawn into a legal battle involving a couple trying to retrieve their car after it was clamped seven weeks ago.
Sir Geoffrey Lofthouse, Labour MP for Pontefract and Castleford, has asked the Home Secretary to intervene in the case of Chris and Linda Milnes, of Knottingley, West Yorkshire, who face a bill of more than pounds 1,000 to recover their pounds 3,700 Ford Escort from a private clamping firm in Leeds after originally being told that the pounds 95 fee to release the vehicle had to be paid within an hour. They refused to pay. Sir Geoffrey said that he had confirmed with Wakefield council that there were no wheel-clamp warning signs at the semi-derelict site where the couple parked. PA
