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.

WINNERS

Tim Henman

Unlike most British losers at Wimbledon, he looks to have a future

Premiership football fans

Ravanelli, di Matteo and (as seems likely) Poborsky. Another close season, another batch of exciting imports

Saurav Ganguly

Who has given the most eloquent response to those patronising jokes about his name with two centuries in his first two Test matches

LOSERS

Ronnie Irani

Whose belligerence helped win the first Test and save the second, but was deemed surplus to requirements for the third

Goran Ivanisevic

With Becker, Sampras and Agassi falling by the wayside the road was clear for a big server to make it to the final: Richard Krajicek.

Italian football fans

Ravanelli, di Matteo and (presumably) Poborsky. In normal circumstances they would all be playing in Serie A come September. Not this year.
