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.

The centre Martin Ridge, who is in the Leinster team for today's Heineken European Cup match against Leicester at Lansdowne Road, has joined the exodus of Irish talent. Ridge is to leave the Old Belvedere club to join Moseley, who already have his Leinster colleague, loose head prop Henry Hurley, in their squad.

The holders, England, will meet Romania in their pool of the 1997 Sevens World Cup in Hong Kong. One of the qualifiers from next month's tournament in Dubai - from which Wales and Scotland are aiming to come through - will complete pool A for the opening-day matches on 21 March.
