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.

They might now be both retired, one a TV pundit and one an assistant manager, but Ryan Giggs can still find former Manchester United team-mate Paul Scholes with a pass everytime.

Watch the video (below) of Giggs playing a prank while Scholes was broadcasting live on BT Sport during Manchester United's 2-1 defeat at PSV in the Champions League this week.

Noticing that Scholes was speaking to the camera, Giggs, who was on the pitch as part of United's warm-up, looked up, and then curled over a crafty pass right onto Scholes's foot. The ginger maestro saw the funny side, in this video uploaded by an eagle-eyed YouTube user.
