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.Amulti-million divorce settlement is not enough for the wife of one of the world's richest men, who has gone to the Appeal Court in London to ask for more.
The pounds 8.8 million she was given by a High Court family division judge is not a fair award, claims Katina Dart, 37, divorced wife of American Robert Dart whose fortune is based on the manufacture of fast-food polystyrene cartons. Even though Mr Justice Johnson, when he made the award to her in April this year, included provision for "occasional plane charter", Mrs Dart, 37, claims she is entitled to a lot more. Her counsel, James Munby QC, told three Appeal Court judges yesterday that his client was looking for an "absolute minimum of many, many, many tens of millions".
