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.

Croatia gained revenge for their Euro 2008 quarter-final defeat at the hands of the Turks as they cruised through to the 2012 tournament with a goalless draw in Zagreb last night.

Guus Hiddink's side were much improved from the first leg but rarely looked like seriously troubling Croatia on a bitterly cold night in the Maksimir Stadium.

Hiddink, the former Chelsea manager, is expected to stand down later this week.
