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.

Capital Corp to face industrial tribunal

Des Pereira, the former company secretary and head of finance at Capital Corporation, is taking the casinos group to an industrial tribunal because he believes he was unfairly dismissed. The move follows the issue of a writ against Mr Pereira and two other former employees for allegedly conspiring to "injure the company". The writ claims the three brought the company and its management into disrepute; hampered the company in the presentation of its business and encouraged 11 other employees to wrongfully terminate their contracts in April. The Gaming Board, which regulates the casinos industry, is investigating the company's affairs.
