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.

SHEFFIELD STEELERS moved to within a point of the top of the Sekonda Superleague after a last-gasp victory over Nottingham Panthers. Kip Noble was the Steelers hero, his double earning his side a 3-2 victory at the Sheffield Arena.

The former Cardiff Devils defender struck the game-winning goal with 29 seconds left in the Boxing Day battle to cap a sterling fightback and keep Steelers on the heels of the leaders, London Knights.

In Wales, netminder Frank Pietrangelo gave away one present too many as Manchester Storm were beaten 7-5 by Cardiff. It was all too much for Storm's coach Kurt Kleinendorst who withdrew the Stanley Cup winner after 13 minutes with his side 4-0 behind.

Ayr Scottish Eagles beat Newcastle Riverkings 7-1.
