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.England's players are to part-fund a £50,000 money-back scheme for fans affected by last night's World Cup postponement in Warsaw.
The Football Association were criticised in some quarters last night when the Three Lions left the National Stadium in Warsaw following the decision to call off last night's World Cup qualifier with Poland without acknowledging the fans who had made the trip.
Whilst the Polish Football Federation have already confirmed they will refund the cost of tickets for fans unable to attend this evening's match, the FA have taken it a step further.
Together with the England Footballers Foundation (EFF), they have agreed to cover the costs of tickets refunds for fans who did remain in the Polish capital.
"The team really appreciate the support we receive away from home," said England skipper Steven Gerrard.
"We know that fans have spent money and taken time off work to travel to Poland and we don't take it for granted.
"The supporters have the complete respect of the whole squad."
