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 butcher's shop which closed 10 days ago during the Scottish E. coli food poisoning outbreak has been given permission to reopen today.
The go-ahead follows laboratory tests of samples taken from John Mulvaney Butcher's of New Stevenston, Lanarkshire, which closed last Tuesday because of possible cross-contamination of its stock from products supplied by John M Barr, the butcher's shop in Wishaw which has been identified as the main source of the outbreak in which 15 people have died.
