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.

Pitch Inspectors from the England and Wales Cricket Board will visit the picturesque ground at Horsham after 18 wickets fell on yesterday's opening day of the Second Division County Championship match. Sussex were dismissed for 137 and Worcestershire then struggled to close only four behind on 133 for 8.

Darren Thomas collected the first century of his career at Chelmsford. The Glamorgan left-hander was unbeaten on 119 to help the Welsh county end the first day of the First Division game on 335 for 7. When he arrived, they were in trouble at 128 for 6, but he and Adrian Dale shared a seventh-wicket partnership of 163 in 46 overs.
