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.

Mark McGhee ended Leicester City's search for a new manager last night after a sudden change of mind. McGhee originally said that he was staying at First Division Reading, but he has decided to leave Elm Park, along with his assistant, Colin Lee, and Mike Hickman, the youth coach.

Graham Taylor, the manager of Wolverhampton Wanderers, has issued a "hands off" warning to clubs interested in David Kelly, the Republic of Ireland striker. Kelly has been linked with a £450,000 move to Stoke City.

Birmingham have made a new offer to Stockport, in an effort to finally seal the on-off deal to capture Kevin Francis. The Midlands club are willing to pay £400,000 immediately, with a further £400,000 once he has made 60 appearances for the Blues.

Joe Jordan, the Bristol City manager, has been charged by the Football Association with bringing the game into disrepute. He was reported by the referee for an outburst during the game against Grimsby.

Rick Parry, chief executive of the Premier League, has pledged the full commitment of a special commission of inquiry which opens today to probe questions of financial irregularities. George Graham, the Arsenal manager, will be asked about allegations that he received a payment of £285,000 in the deal for John Jensen.
