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.

Here we go again. Strawberries, umbrellas and a crushing sense of disappointment and national inadequacy at the ready - it's Wimbledon time.

This afternoon the defending champion will step on to Centre Court to play the first match in the battle for the title. And if he though the pressure last year was bad he's about to get a rude awakening: after England's mortifying early World Cup exit, Andy Murray is the only thing standing between us and the mocking laughter of entire sporting world.

It's been twelve long months since Murray ended our 77-year long men’s singles drought, twelve months in which he has ditched his coach Ivan Lendl, had major surgery on his back, and guest edited the Beano. Is he ready to do it again?
