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.

BRADFORD NORTHERN kept up their challenge to Warrington with a thrilling 13-11 win over Featherstone at Post Office Road yesterday. They led 12-8 at the interval with tries from Darrall Shelford and Dave Watson and two goals from Deryck Fox, then held their slim advantage with tremendous defensive work in the second period after Fox's 48th- minute drop goal.

The leaders, Warrington, never looked back in their comfortable 22-8 victory against Hull. They opened up with 10 points in as many minutes and led 20-2 at half-time. Lee Penny made tries for Kevin Ellis and Paul Darbyshire. A long-range move by Iestyn Harris and Rob Myler ended with Mark Forster's 100th try for the club.
