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.

A COLLISION at the start-line between Grant Dalton's maxi New Zealand Endeavour and Pierre Fehlmann's Merit Cup broke all four spreaders on Fehlmann's mizzen mast, forcing him back into Copenhagen for repairs. He was allowed a maximum of three hours as the rest of the UAP Round Europe fleet left on the fifth leg to Helsinki. In the light south-westerly, Spain's Galicia Pescanova again led Intrum Justitia and Italy's Brooksfield in the battle for supremacy between the Whitbread 60s.
