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.

Great Britain exacted quick revenge in Auckland yesterday when they won 3-1 in their second encounter over the weekend with New Zealand in Auckland. They had suffered their first defeat at the hands of the Kiwis since the 1972 Munich Olympics when they lost 2-1 on Saturday.

Yesterday, Ben Hawes scored twice at first-half penalty corners and Danny Hall netted at a third just before the interval in an aggressive British performance. But New Zealand rallied in the second-half and Blair Hopping pulled a goal back at a penalty corner.

Chelmsford went two points clear at the top of theWomen's Premier Division with a 2-1 victory at Slough. Second placed Clifton drew 1-1 away to Fyffes Leicester.

At the top of the Men's Premier,Cannock stayed ahead with a 4-1 win at home to St Albans. Reading remain second by one point after a 2-0 win at Guildford.
