Former Commander of Joint Forces Command – and one of the authors of the Strategic Defence Review – General Sir Richard Barrons joins Lucy Dunn and James Heale to talk through the main conclusions of the review, and the questions it raises. Labour have talked up the fact that this is the first government in a generation to not reduce the size of the armed forces.

The UK Chancellor of the Exchequer, Rachel Reeves, has delivered the Autumn Budget 2024. In the first Budget delivered by the Labour Party since 2010, Reeves announced an extensive array of tax reforms designed to 'stabilise' public finances and facilitate increased government spending. Altogether, tax rises totalling £40 billion were announced - some expected, others less so. In our latest podcast Peter Clements, Sarah Bond, Rose Swaffield, Josh Critchlow and Chris Gotch from our London tax team discuss the tax measures they found the most noteworthy in the Autumn Budget 2024, including: Headline Budget announcements, including: increases in the capital gains tax (CGT) main rates and reforms to business asset disposal relief and investors' relief, accompanied by anti-forestalling measures; an increase in employer National Insurance contributions by 1.2% from April 2025; and an increase in the CGT rates for carried interest from April 2025, with more significant reforms expected to follow; Publication of the Corporate Tax Roadmap designed to provide stability for businesses and foster inward investment, including: capping the headline UK corporation tax rate at 25%; confirmation the permanent 'full expensing' capital allowance regime and existing R&D reliefs will be retained; and plans to provide increased tax certainty to investors in major projects; Measures designed to 'close the tax gap', including: an increase in the interest rate for unpaid tax; targeted anti-avoidance measures applying with immediate effect; and the recruitment of additional HMRC compliance and debt management staff; and Other changes to the UK's tax code, including: confirmation the UK will introduce the Pillar Two undertaxed profits rule (the 'UTPR') for accounting periods from January 2025, along with the related repeal of the offshore receipts in respect of intangible property (or 'ORIP') rules; the replacement of the remittance basis of taxation for non-UK domiciled individuals ('non-doms') with a new residence-based regime; and confirmation of increases to the rate and duration of the Energy Profits Levy and the removal of the associated investment allowance.

Would you be a different version of you if you'd surrounded yourself with different people? This is something the plot of The Husbands, the Happy Place Book Club pick for August, explores. In this chat with Fearne, live at the Happy Place Festival, author Holly Gramazio explains why she wanted to examine the idea that different relationships could significantly impact your lifestyle and personality. She reckons there's more than one way for you to be happy and for you to be yourself; there's not necessarily a clear, correct choice about who you should date, what job you should have, or where you should live. Fearne and Holly also give advice about how to start writing a novel if you feel you have one in you, including finding a friend who's rubbish at lying to read your drafts...Thank you to Penguin Audio for the use of The Husbands audiobook, read by Miranda Raison.

Summary We avoid the difficult, don't we? It is not easy to invite, open up to and engage in difficult conversations and decision making. I explore the challenges we face when handling the difficult. Drawing from personal experiences and client stories, I discuss how making decisions—whether they're about ending a relationship or changing careers—resembles a complex dance that requires both grace and strategy. It does require courage, clarity and patience. I dive into the delicate balance between logical thinking and emotional feeling in decision-making. Our heart says something, but head has a completely different mind of its own, pun completely intended. So, how do we do this? Let's explore!

Topics covered include the challenges and potential of the new paradigm, real-life examples from the authors' professional journeys, and the enduring need for empathetic leadership even in the face of daunting organisational inertia. 00:00 Introduction to a New Leadership Paradigm 00:54 Meet the Authors: Kim, Jonathan, and Erin Clark 02:12 Erin's Journey: From Accidental Consultant to Leadership Expert 04:52 John's Insights: Organisational Performance and Leadership 08:01 Kim's Experience: The Power Over Paradigm in Action 15:23 The Pathway Program: Transforming Higher Education 18:34 John's Challenge: Changing Department Dynamics 22:55 The Power Over Paradigm: Real-World Examples 29:32 Erin's Client Experience: Unity and Freedom in Leadership 32:09 The Power of Collaboration and Humanity 33:43 Breaking Free from Organisational Dynamics 35:06 The Courage to Embrace a New Paradigm 38:16 Generative AI and the Value of Humanity 46:21 The Amazon Case Study: A Cautionary Tale 50:31 Modularity: Balancing Freedom and Unity 56:14 Empathetic Leadership and Difficult Decisions 01:01:22 The Vision of Leading Through 01:03:36 Conclusion and Final Thoughts Book Website and how to get a preview: Book links: Find Aidan here for Keynotes, Event MC and Custom L&D Programmes.

MaryCate Delvey is a female rights activist and satirist. She created the video series “Listen To Trans People,” which exposes the dark nature of transgender ideology in their own words. In this episode, she helps me uncover the disturbing inner worlds of porn-saturated misogynists, incel Redditors, and autogynephiles, shedding light on the fetishistic nature of some men who simultaneously seek to become women while mocking us and undermining our safety. What is hypno sissy porn? Is “gender euphoria” just a euphemism for inappropriate erections? What drives these men to seek validation through violating women's spaces and boundaries? How do their actions reflect possible deeper issues of narcissism and sadism? And what do parents of young heterosexual men with Rapid Onset Gender Dysphoria (ROGD) need to know about the dark corners of the internet their sons may be spending time on?Join us as we navigate through the murky waters of gender identity and the blurred lines between sexual orientation and fetishism.

By exploring four essential questions, we can make better, wiser choices that guide us toward the life we long to live. Let's be honest: life and decision-making can be complicated.

In this episode of "Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski," defense attorney Bob Motta discusses the trial of Karen Read, who is currently awaiting a verdict. The jury is struggling to reach a consensus, reflecting the divided opinions in society. Motta explains that this case epitomizes reasonable doubt, especially under Massachusetts' high standard of "moral certainty." The jury's indecision may lead to a hung jury, and Motta predicts that a verdict is unlikely. The judge has not yet given a "dynamite" charge to push for a decision, leaving the possibility open. If the jury remains deadlocked, the judge may declare a mistrial, allowing the Commonwealth to decide whether to retry the case. Motta highlights the strategic considerations for the prosecution, including their ability to address issues from the first trial and whether Karen Read can afford her high-caliber defense team again. The Commonwealth typically has a set deadline, often around 30 days, to decide on a retrial. The conversation underscores the complexities and uncertainties inherent in this high-profile case. **Main Points:** - The jury in Karen Read's trial is unable to reach a verdict, reflecting societal divisions. - Massachusetts requires a high standard of "moral certainty" for a guilty verdict. - Bob Motta predicts a hung jury and eventual mistrial. - The judge has not yet issued a "dynamite" charge to compel a verdict. - In case of a mistrial, the Commonwealth decides whether to retry the case. - Strategic considerations include addressing issues from the first trial and Read's ability to fund her defense. - The Commonwealth has a deadline, typically around 30 days, to decide on a retrial. #KarenRead #TonyBrueski #BobMoWant to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

In this episode of The Brave Enough Show, Dr. Sasha Shillcutt and Nicole Trick Steinbach discuss: The importance of clarity in becoming brave Knowing what you DON'T want just as much as what you DO want How collecting “data” of past decisions makes you braver Embracing the freedom that comes with failure Nicole Trick Steinbach is the Founder of Trick Steinbach LLC, the host of the Celebrate Brave podcast, and an International Bravery Coach. She helps women build their bravery and shows them how to stress and work less. After spending nearly 20 years working in tech, Nicole had become a Global Senior Director. She spent 13 years living in Germany, traveling the world, and leading global teams across all functional areas in over 25 different countries. In 2008, even with all of her success, Nicole realized that she felt exhausted, unhappy, and alone. Through coaching, Nicole discovered how her relentless pursuit of an ever-changing definition of “success” was pushing away her support network, deflating her confidence, and driving her to burnout. Over the next ten years, Nicole was able to build her own unique, gorgeous, wonderfully fulfilling life, full of connection and appreciation, rest and joy, safety and wealth. The key was realizing that bravery is a skill that she could intentionally develop and practice. Now she teaches women all over the world to build their own brave. Nicole's framework of clarity, momentum, and accountability helps her clients set goals and establish the mindset they need to sustain their success. Nicole coaches women to view all of their successes, mistakes, and even failures as equal stepping stones to building their brave life and career. When Nicole isn't serving her clients you can find her reading a new book, enjoying the outdoors with her two kiddos, and learning with others on her own podcast.

In this episode, Dan and Ian share their own OS that's extremely simple. It's called GPS. They'll explain how GPS helps you put a plan in place to meet your goals, and deliver on that plan.

In this episode, Ian and Dan discuss the concept of doing things that don't scale, inspired by Paul Graham's influential article 'Do Things That Don't Scale.' They explore the idea of taking risks and gambling in entrepreneurship, and how it relates to increasing one's locus of control. The conversation covers various strategies for founders, including recruiting users manually, building something fragile, delighting users, focusing on experience, and niche marketing. In this conversation, Ian and Dan discuss Paul Graham's article 'Do Things That Don't Scale' and explore the principal themes and takeaways. They cover topics such as the idea of scaling, fabricating products yourself, consulting and acting as an anchor client, going manual and doing unscalable laborious tasks, the illusion of big launches and partnerships, vectors vs. scalars (ideas and execution), and the temptation to gamble and the importance of locus of control.

Dan and Ian discuss the different phases of bootstrapping a business and the common challenges that arise at each stage. They walk through three phases: Zero to $250k “Mindset”; $250k to 1 million "We're seeking a reliable/repeatable source of new customers"; and $1 million + "We need to hire, fire, improve/change team members more effectively”. They explore everything from adjusting the offer to the marketplace and developing a strong customer base to making a rule that the founder should be responsible for growth up to $5M. They also explore the crucial role that team composition plays in the professionalization of the company. Finally, they discuss the decision between maximizing profitability and scaling the business.
