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.

Southport have promoted Steve Joel, who played for the GM Vauxhall Conference club in their Football League days, from assistant manager to manager. Peter Davenport, their former England striker, becomes Joel's No 2.

Moscow Torpedo have been suspended from all UEFA competitions for failing to pay an outstanding debt to Austria's VfB Modling that was compensation for the training and development of Andrei Kalaitchev, of Russia, who played for the Austrians for one season in 1992-93 before returning to Moscow.

Zimbabwe have dropped Peter Ndlovu, the Coventry striker, and his Switzerland- based brother Adam from the squad for Sunday's World Cup qualifier against Madagascar for turning up late to training.
