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.

Sir: As a lifelong Tottenham Hotspur supporter, I am astounded that Alan Sugar has lost sight of his undoubted business acumen. Does he not realise that if he succeeds in usurping Terry Venables from the helm of the club, he (and ultimately the club) will suffer inexorably.

The withholding of season ticket renewals and an embargo on purchases of the forthcoming team strip is merely the beginning, and will probably lead to economic coercion of the products in which the bearded protagonist has a major interest.

I, and the great majority of Spurs' devotees, will not set foot inside White Hart Lane if Mr Venables is ousted. Let us hope that good sense and the law are ad idem.

Yours,

JAMES DIMMOCK
