However, this law has sparked legal scrutiny across the EU, with opponents arguing it contradicts European Single Market rules and raises significant competition law concerns under Article 56 of the EU Treaty.Host Charlie Horner is joined by iGaming Experts Editor Joe Streeter and SBC's Media Director Martyn Elliott, reporting live from SBC Summit Malta. Together, they delve into why Bill 55 could face escalation to the European Court of Justice (ECJ) following Austrian legal challenges — and what this means for operators contributing over 11% to Malta's GDP.

Instrumentalization of Migration? - In Conversation with Nora Markard

RevDem Podcast

In recent years, the EU's increasingly right-leaning discourse on migration has given rise to a new narrative: the instrumentalization of migration. EU member states strivefor lower human rights standards, arguing that Belarus, under the authoritarian rule of Alexander Lukashenko, deliberately sends individuals who have fled countries such as Afghanistan and Iraq to the EU's borders in order to overwhelm them, at times even accusing these individuals of collaborating with Belarusian authorities. Currently, three cases related to this situation are pending before the European Court of Human Rights. In this conversation, Prof. Nora Markard examines the origins of the narrative of the “instrumentalization of migration” and the legal challenges it presents—particularly with regard tothe principle of non-refoulement and the prohibition of collective expulsion in the pending cases. She argues that these cases pose a serious threat to the rule of law, as EU member states increasingly disregard their obligations undermigration law and seek exceptions before the court. The discussion then shifts to broader challenges in human rights protection, including the misappropriation of rights and the question of whether a strong focus on the legality of state actions might actually undermine human rights. ]Prof. Markard notes that, while human rights are being questioned today in ways that might not have occurred a decade ago—and despite legitimate criticisms of the humanrights framework—it remains essential to make the most of it.

Keelung City councilor receives suspended sentence for corruption The Keelung District Court has handed Keelung City Councilor Chang Hao-han a suspended sentence after finding his guilty of embezzling public funds. The court found the D-P-P city councilor guilty of fraudulently claiming 782,000 N-T by falsifying the salary of his office assistant and registering his mother as a phantom (虛假的) employee. However, the court cited Chang's admission of guilt and return of the illicit gains - handing him prison sentence of 24 months - suspended for five years.

The award is intended to support the French release of a first or second feature film by a new director. Speaking in Cannes after receiving the award, Tsou said the film drew on her many memories from Taiwan, including tense relationships in a traditional family and quiet everyday acts of resistance (反抗) that often went unnoticed. EU Leaders Urge Reinterpretation of Human Rights Convention Leaders of 9 European Union countries say they want a reinterpretation of the European Convention on Human Rights in order to better tackle (對付,處理) irregular migration to the continent and effectively increase deportations. The open letter signed by the leaders of Italy, Denmark, Lithuania Poland and others was made public in Rome late Thursday. It argues that some of the European Court of Human Rights interpretations have limited national governments' ability to expel a minority of migrants who commit crimes. The European Court of Human Rights handles complaints against the 46-member states of the Council of Europe, under the European Convention on Human Rights, including many cases involving migrants and asylum-seekers.

Earlier Thursday, Mulino said during his weekly news briefing that he had received a letter from Venezuela, but that he hadn't immediately read it. Mulino did say, however, that it would be in Panama's interest to resume flights, though he said he also wanted Venezuela to agree to receive Venezuelan migrants deported from Panama.

The clash between David Wolfson KC's “thin” interpretation of legal principle and Attorney General Richard Hermer's “thick” is explained through the experienced legal eyes of Ken Macdonald KC and Tim Owen KC on this episode of Double Jeopardy.   They dig into the political implications of these contrasting views, the role of parliamentary sovereignty, how the UK navigates its obligations under international law, including the Chagos Island dispute and the role of the International Criminal Court, whether the Tories will commit to repeal of the Human Rights Act and leaving the ECHR and ask whether the role and function of the rule of law can ever be approached in a non-partisan way.   Shadow Attorney General David Wolfson KC also joins Double Jeopardy to tackle one of the most pressing questions in UK politics and law today: what does the rule of law really mean - and who gets to define it?    Covering the constitutional crisis created by Brexit/Covid, the right of Parliament to legislate in defiance of international law, the domestic law tensions generated by the expansive approach to human rights law of the European Court of Human Rights and the influence of current political events including the migration debate on attitudes to the rule of law, this episode offers rare, insider insight into the legal and philosophical tensions at the heart of the British system.   If you're looking for thoughtful legal system insights, a deeper understanding of UK politics, or an unflinching look at UK law and legal battles in Britain, this episode delivers it all. Law, politics, and justice - expertly unpacked on Double Jeopardy.   -----   Covering the critical intersections of law and politics in the UK with expert commentary on high-profile legal cases, political controversies, prisons and sentencing, human rights law, current political events and the shifting landscape of justice and democracy. With in-depth discussions and influential guests, Double Jeopardy is the podcast that uncovers the forces shaping Britain's legal and political future.   What happens when law and politics collide? How do politics shape the law - and when does the law push back? What happens when judicial independence is tested, human rights come under attack, or freedom of expression is challenged? And who really holds power in Britain's legal and political system?   Get answers to questions like these weekly on Wednesdays at 6am GMT.   Double Jeopardy is presented by Ken Macdonald KC, former Director of Public Prosecutions, and Tim Owen KC, as they break down the legal and political issues in Britain.

He is a former Warden of Wadham College, Oxford, a crossbench member of the House of Lords, and a leading writer, commentator and broadcaster on politics and the rule of law.   Tim Owen KC has been involved in many of the most significant public, criminal and human rights law cases over the past four decades.

A bottle of wine carries more than fermented grapes. It embodies intellectual property worth billions in global markets. From the tapas bars of Barcelona to the vineyards of Australia, wine names spark international incidents with real-world consequences.When a small Spanish bar named "Champanillo" (little champagne) faced the wrath of the powerful Comité Champagne, it revealed how geographical indications function like luxury brand protections. No actual champagne was sold, yet the European Court of Justice ruled the mere evocation of champagne's prestige violated EU law. Similarly, Belgian customs officials destroyed thousands of Miller High Life beer cans for daring to call themselves "The Champagne of Beers" despite using the slogan for over 120 years.These battles extend beyond Europe's borders. Croatian winemakers watched helplessly as their traditional Prošek dessert wine, despite being nothing like sparkling Prosecco, was blocked from registration after Italian opposition. Meanwhile, Australia and the EU reached a trade negotiation impasse over whether "Prosecco" refers to a grape variety (as Australians argue) or a protected place name (as Europeans insist). The dispute demonstrates how a single wine term can become geopolitical leverage worth potentially billions in trade.Luxury producers fight equally fierce battles, with Château Petrus winning a €1.2 million judgment against a cheaper wine called "Petrus Lambertini," while even Prince's estate successfully challenged an Ohio winery's "Purple Rain" wine. Counterfeiters face serious consequences too, fake Lafite bottles distributed through nearly 2,000 supermarkets resulted in an $11 million judgment, while Europol's "Operation Epigraphy" dismantled a multinational fake Rioja network spanning three countries.Whether through trademarks, geographical indications, certification marks, or patents (as seen in the competitive synthetic cork industry), wine intellectual property serves as the legal foundation for an industry that blends agriculture, culture, commerce and law. What's inside the bottle is only half the story, the rest lies in who has the right to tell it.Listen now to understand why every sip comes with a side of intellectual property law, and why the words on a wine label can be worth millions in courtrooms worldwide.Send us a text
