Dream on, England
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.Are you ready for the thrill of not knowing whether England will throw it all away in injury time or the joys of traffic-free roads tomorrow evening? If you think the nation is in the grips of a compulsive sporting obsession, imagine the scene two weeks hence, on Sunday 4 July. There may be an element of wishful thinking/worst-case scenario in this, but suppose Tim Henman is in the Men's Finals at Wimbledon and England are up against France in the final of Euro 2004. Not to mention a one-day cricket engagement with New Zealand. And the Henley Regatta. Who was it that said life is for people who cannot cope with too much spectator sport?
