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.

Mary Thomson staked a claim for international recognition in the final trial for World Championship selection here yesterday, writes Mary Gordon Watson from Althorp. The 33-year-old, hoping for a call-up to Britain's three-day event team with King William, headed the dressage section in the Maverick Championship with 29 points. There was encouragement too for Ian Stark. The 40-year- old Scot, partnering Kilcoran, finished in third place, four points adrift of Thomson.
