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 NUDE male model has accused a further education college of sexual discrimination by claiming that art teachers prefer to let their students draw women.

George Bond, 54, (right) of Northampton, said two tutors at Northampton College were shunning his services. He claimed at an industrial tribunal in Bedford that the teachers preferred women models because they were easier for inexperienced artists to draw. College bosses denied his claims, saying he could not hold poses for long periods, fidgeted and went to the toilet too often. The tribunal was adjourned until 5 June.
