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 week has started with a raft of stories on Home Secretary Suella Braverman, the Armistice weekend protests and conflict in the Gaza Strip.

The Daily Telegraph reports on the link between violent demonstrations during Armistice weekend and the Home Secretary, who has been accused of fuelling far-right hate speech resulting in violence near the Cenotaph.

The Daily Mail and Daily Express follow suit, honing in on Mrs Braverman and what will happen next.

The Times and The Sun focus on the “antisemitic yobs” that used the Armistice Day rallies to further their right-wing agenda.

The Daily Mirror and The Metro lead with a statement of “never again” in the wake of the scenes witnessed in London at the weekend.

The Financial Times looks to the conflict in the Middle East for its front page.

The i pivots away from anarchy at the Cenotaph to focus on other issues plaguing the Conservative Party.

The Independent splashes on “Thatcher’s ad agency” that has seemingly turned on the “cruel” Conservative Party, backing Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer for the upcoming general election.

The Guardian runs with the “squalid housing” across the UK that is “making (the) NHS crisis worse”.

And the Daily Star warns about an oncoming “perfect storm” for hayfever sufferers as the seasons change.
