Definition of independent for the purposes of this question: source is not owned by a for-profit corporation, is not financially backed by any billionaire (either directly or via foundation or nonprofit organization) and is not financed by any national government (even if run without oversight).
It can have any perceived bias or political leaning.
Edit: Just to add it has to be written in English.
Try the BBC. Or the English channels of DW (Deutsche Welle).
Keep in mind that shutting down independent or opposing media is a top priority for any dictator. Local sources will die off quickly.
Are you serious? The BBC are literally a government mouthpiece, with a subversive right-wing bias. When Labour is in power, they over-report every misdeed, and when the Tories are in power, they maybe raise an eyebrow as the country burns. The last BBC director was a major Tory who received a sizeable bribe from his party during his tenure.

In the UK the BBC is hugely pro-establishment but their reporting on world news is fantastic.
The BBC has been accused of being too far left. Often at the same time. In comparison to other English speaking news sources the BBC is quite neutral.
I’ll compromise: they’re about as politically neutral as the US democratic party is left-wing.
