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.

London Underground has released its first Night Tube map outlining which stations will operate 24-hour services on weekends from September.

The Night Tube will be available on the following lines; Central, Jubilee, Northern, Piccadilly and Victoria.

Passengers will be able to travel on Friday and Saturday nights and in the early hours of Saturday and Sunday mornings.

Transport for London estimates that journeys will be cut by 20 minutes on average and will boost the economy in the capital city by £360m, whilst creating 2,000 new jobs.

However, the move has proved controversial amongst Tube drivers. Some have arranged strike action in protest over pay and conditions for the all night service and will walk out for 24 hours on 8 July.

London Underground’s Director of Strategy and Service Development, Gareth Powell, told The Independent: “The introduction of the Night Tube is a historic step in our modernisation of the Underground. The Night Tube map shows our customers exactly when and where they can use this landmark service, which will make their late night journeys quicker and easier than ever before.”

The new services will commence on 12 September.
