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.International football is back, and the Premier League title race has been paused for England’s Euro 2020 qualifiers against Czech Republic and Montenegro. Even with this, the most popular England team for a generation, how much do we all care? Jack Pitt-Brooke, Jonathan Liew and Lawrence Ostlere discuss.
England could win two trophies in the next 15 months, with the Nations League finals in Porto this June then Euro 2020 at Wembley next year. We look back at England’s evolution up to this point and ask where they go next. Who plays at right-back? What is the right combination in midfield? Is Declan Rice the missing link?
Because Euro 2020 could well be the peak tournament for this generation, England’s best chance at a trophy. Especially because the example of Germany shows that teams have to win while they are still young and before stasis sets in.
And finally, the biggest topic of the week: which England players are Leave or Remain, in the eyes of Jonathan Liew.
