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.

Rugby League

Oldham are to play six of their 11 Super League home games in 1996 at Boundary Park, the home ground of their footballing neighbours, Oldham Athletic. Talks are also taking place with Manchester City about playing at Maine Road. Oldham's plan to use Manchester United's stadium was ruled out because Old Trafford is a venue for next summer's European Championship. By 1997 the club hope to be housed in a new council-built stadium near Boundary Park.

STONES CENTENARY CHAMPIONSHIP: Sheffield (4) 34. Tries: Carr 2, Dakuitoga, Garcia, Hay, Stott. Goals: Mycoe 5. Workington (8) 8. Tries: Kitchin, Phillips. (2,500)
