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.PETER TAYLOR is still waiting for the call that could offer him continued employment after he bows out as the most successful England Under-21 manager in history.
Taylor can finish on a high, as victory over Bulgaria tonight at the Hristo Botev Stadium in Vratza will ensure England win their European Championship qualifying group with two matches to spare. Friday's 3-0 success over Sweden at Huddersfield maintained their 100 per-cent record in the group and in five games they have scored 16 goals and conceded none.
Now he is hoping to step into management or coaching at club level, having previously had spells with Dartford, Enfield, Dover, Watford and Southend. However, little in the way of concrete offers have come his way since the Football Association decided in March to dispense with his services. Sunderland's Peter Reid takes over the job on a part-time basis.
Taylor will be forced to make three changes. Frank Lampard is ruled out through suspension, while Danny Mills and Kieron Dyer have been called into the senior squad.
