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.JAMES MOLYNEAUX, the leader of the Ulster Unionists, yesterday started a guessing game when he alerted people in Northern Ireland to the possibility that there could be 'significant developments over the weekend with regard to the terrorist situation'.
Later, a senior party member said the move was not earth-shattering but 'might get some of our grass-roots supporters upset'. In a short statement from his headquarters, Mr Molyneaux advised the people of Northern Ireland 'not to jump to conclusions'. He added that 'detailed information should be available by the beginning of the week'.
The Irish Prime Minister, Albert Reynolds, writing in the Belfast Telegraph yesterday, maintained there would be no change in the status of the Province without majority consent.
