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.

Swedish car manufacturer Volvo produces the most secure vehicles, according to a study of cars on British roads carried out for motor insurers Eagle Star Direct. The next most secure vehicles are Nissans, followed by Jaguars, Renaults, Mercedes and Fords.

The company said it was not giving details of manufacturers at the bottom of its list. "We recently revealed that the UK has the worst car crime in Europe and that Leeds is the worst city for crime, so we wanted a good news story this time," said a spokesman.
