Museum staff go on strike
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.Two days of strike action at museums and galleries across Britain has begun in a long-running row over jobs, pay and pensions.
Staff at the National Gallery, National Portrait Gallery and Imperial War Museum in London, and at Tate galleries in the capital and Liverpool took industrial action. Workers at the Museum of Liverpool plan to create a "human shield" around the building tomorrow.
