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.

More than 250,000 fans turned out to watch Arsenal's victory parade from Highbury to Islington Town Hall yesterday.

More than 250,000 fans turned out to watch Arsenal's victory parade from Highbury to Islington Town Hall yesterday.

The Gunners' manager, Arsène Wenger, thanked the fans for their support while members of his first-team squad held the Premiership trophy aloft in turns.

The Frenchman said Ruud van Nistelrooy's penalty miss at Manchester United in September and the 4-2 comeback victory at home to Liverpool in April were the key points in the unbeaten Premiership season.

"The key for us was quality play and our attitude. In any job consistency is a sign of quality. I don't believe in miracles. I believe in good quality of work."
