People and Business: Bagging the wrong animal
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.CLAUDE BEBEAR, chairman and chief executive of the French financial services giant AXA, has obviously got his priorities right.
While Mr Bebear's underlings were slaving away last week trying to work out whether they should increase AXA's 360p offer for Guardian Royal Exchange (GRE), the boss was in Africa "big game hunting".
How could bagging a UK insurance company possibly compete with bagging a wild animal on the high veldt? I'm sure Mr Bebear's shareholders will join me in wishing him the best of luck on his next shoot.
