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.

Warrington are lifted by the return of their captain, Lee Briers, while the full-back Lee Penny will make his first Tetley's Super League appearance of the season against Wakefield at Wilderspool tomorrow.

Penny, who injured his calf in February, goes straight back into the side, with Graham Appo reverting to the wing. "It has been extremely frustrating watching, especially since we have not won at home yet," said Penny, who needs just two tries for a career century.

The Wolves also have the second-rower Mike Wainwright and the centre Ian Sibbit back from injury but they are without the hooker Mark Gleeson in addition to long-term casualties, Ben Westwood (broken leg) and Sid Domic (thumb).
