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.The Liberal Democrats are looking for a new top official after Chris Fox announced he will stand down as the party's chief executive in November. Mr Fox has held the post since July 2009 and has won praise for steering the Liberal Democrats through a rocky period since last year's general election.
They lost their state-funded grants for opposition parties when they entered the Coalition, forcing them to axe 20 jobs. Mr Fox also oversaw a move from the party's Cowley Street headquarters in Westminster to a new office opposite the Treasury. Mr Fox said: "Stepping down is one of the most difficult decisions of my life."
