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.Police are advising women to try to avoid showing prospective buyers around their homes after two sex attacks in a week believed to be by the same man.
The smartly dressed, polite man, in his late thirties or early forties, raped a woman at Chingford, east London, and sexually assaulted another at Waltham Abbey, north London, last week, after turning up without an appointment to ask to view houses for sale.
