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.Security staff attempted to clear a path for the 47-year-old pop star as the crowds swarmed outside the Victoria Palace theatre, where he and his children had gone to see the musical Billy Elliot.
The singer stumbled and fell but the party took seats at the back of the stalls, 15 minutes after the show had been scheduled to start. During the interval, Jackson mingled with members of the audience. The scenes echoed similar ones earlier in the day at the Dorchester hotel, where he was staying.
