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.Chris Huhne has spoken about swapping speeding points with his ex-wife Vicky Pryce, saying that 'things got out of hand'.
In an interview with Channel 4's Gary Gibbon shortly before he was jailed, the former cabinet minister added: 'You should accept responsibility for what you do. It was a very stupid thing to do.'
Huhne and Pryce have both been jailed for eight months for perverting the course of justice in the speeding points scam.
