Nearly a decade ago in Ghana, 15-year-old Kevin Moses died at Achimota High School. In a landmark ruling last year, Ghana's High Court found the school negligent for Kevin's death. The school has appealed that decision. Between May 2023 and February 2024, six students died while in boarding school. Why are children dying in schools in Ghana? Also, we hear differing views on what caused the recent floods in Sudan. And how Nigeria's Green Falcons could become the first African team to qualify for the Women's Rugby League World Cup?Presenter: Nyasha Michelle Producers: Patricia Whitehorne, Piers Edwards and Stefania Okereke in London Senior Journalist: Yvette Twagiramariya Technical Producer: Pat Sissons Editors: Andre Lombard and Alice Muthengi

This Day in Legal History: Earl Warren AppointedOn October 2, 1953, President Dwight D. Eisenhower appointed Earl Warren as the 14th Chief Justice of the United States, setting in motion one of the most transformative periods in Supreme Court history. Warren, who had previously served as Governor of California and was the Republican nominee for Vice President in 1948, was a surprise choice—appointed during a recess of the Senate following the death of Chief Justice Fred Vinson. Though Eisenhower reportedly later regretted the decision, Warren would go on to lead a Court that dramatically expanded civil rights, civil liberties, and judicial power.Under Warren's leadership, the Court issued a series of landmark decisions, beginning with Brown v. Board of Educationin 1954, which declared racial segregation in public schools unconstitutional. The Warren Court also established the principle of “one person, one vote” in legislative apportionment, expanded the rights of criminal defendants in cases like Gideon v. Wainwright and Miranda v. Arizona, and reinforced the wall between church and state. Warren was known for his ability to forge consensus among justices, often securing unanimous decisions in major cases to strengthen the Court's moral authority.His tenure marked a fundamental shift in constitutional interpretation, emphasizing equality, due process, and the role of the judiciary in correcting social injustices. While praised by many for championing individual rights and the rule of law, the Warren Court also faced significant criticism from those who viewed its decisions as judicial activism. Warren retired in 1969, but the legal legacy of his Court continues to shape American law and society.New York Attorney General Letitia James filed a lawsuit and an emergency motion against U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), accusing them of unlawfully withholding nearly $34 million in funding for New York's Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA). The MTA oversees subway, bus, and commuter rail systems across New York City and surrounding areas. James filed the suit in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, seeking a temporary restraining order to preserve the funds while the legal case proceeds.According to James, DHS abruptly reduced the funding allocation from nearly $34 million to zero, a move she described as unlawful and politically motivated. Her office emphasized that the emergency request does not seek immediate disbursement, but rather aims to prevent the funds from being lost while the court reviews the matter. She warned that the funding freeze could endanger the safety of millions of transit riders in New York.This legal action comes amid broader concerns raised by the U.S. Transportation Department, which recently threatened to withhold 25% of MTA's federal transit funding unless improvements are made to track worker safety protocols. DHS did not provide an immediate response to requests for comment.New York AG James sues Homeland Security for nearly $34 million over transit funding freeze | ReutersApple and OpenAI asked a U.S. judge to dismiss a lawsuit brought by Elon Musk's AI company, xAI, over claims that their partnership harms competition. xAI's suit, filed in August, seeks billions in damages and argues that Apple's integration of ChatGPT into its devices gives OpenAI an unfair advantage while sidelining rival products like Musk's Grok chatbot. Apple and OpenAI countered that their deal is not exclusive and that Apple plans to work with other generative AI providers.Apple's lawyers emphasized the openness of the agreement, asserting that the arrangement does not prevent competition or violate antitrust laws. In a separate filing, OpenAI described Musk's legal actions as part of a broader “campaign of lawfare” against the company, referencing previous lawsuits Musk has filed, including one challenging OpenAI's shift from nonprofit to for-profit status.OpenAI further argued that xAI had not demonstrated concrete harm or the kind of anticompetitive behavior that antitrust law is designed to prevent. Musk, who co-founded OpenAI in 2015 before departing, has accused the company and CEO Sam Altman of straying from its original nonprofit mission.Apple, OpenAI ask US judge to dismiss Musk's suit over competition claims | ReutersLawyers representing Prince Harry and other public figures accused the Daily Mail publisher, Associated Newspapers (ANL), of also targeting Prince William and Princess Kate in an ongoing privacy lawsuit. The new allegations, presented in filings at London's High Court, suggest that confidential details about William's 21st birthday were obtained through “blagging”—a deceptive tactic to access private information. Kate was allegedly targeted by a private investigator working for a Mail journalist.Prince Harry and six others, including Elton John and his husband David Furnish, are suing ANL for alleged privacy violations dating back 30 years. The lawsuit accuses ANL of unlawful activities such as voicemail hacking, obtaining medical records by deception, and even burglary. ANL has denied the claims and called them baseless and exaggerated. A trial is scheduled for early 2026.The publisher pushed back in court, arguing that the claimants failed to connect the alleged misconduct to specific journalists or investigators. They also sought to exclude findings from earlier cases against other newspaper publishers like News Group Newspapers and the Daily Mirror. ANL accused two claimants, Sadie Frost and Simon Hughes, of manipulating the timing of story publications to evade a statute of limitations—though the court had previously ruled in the claimants' favor on that issue.Prince Harry attended the hearing remotely, while several other claimants were present in court. This lawsuit marks the first time ANL has been directly implicated in the phone-hacking scandal that has plagued British tabloids for nearly two decades.Daily Mail publisher asks UK court to limit Prince Harry lawsuit | Reuters This is a public episode.

Defence lawyers for the four people accused of murdering South Canterbury man Anaru Moana are disputing claims of how he died. Christchurch reporter Adam Burns was in the High Court.

In this episode, we unpack three major legal and regulatory developments shaping South Africa's business and property landscape. First, we explore the Deeds Registries Amendment Act of 2024, a landmark step towards modernising the land registration system. From clarifying technical ambiguities to introducing penalties for unauthorised transactions, the Act lays the groundwork for a fully electronic, streamlined land registration system that promises greater efficiency and accountability. Next, we turn to employee rights during business transfers under Section 197 of the Labour Relations Act. Using recent case law, we examine how employees are protected when businesses change hands, ensuring continuity of service, preservation of benefits, and fairness in the face of insolvency or restructuring. Finally, we discuss beneficial ownership reporting requirements for trusts. While active trusts must now disclose detailed ownership information to the Master of the High Court, dormant and deregistered trusts enjoy exemptions—provided they formally declare their status. We highlight compliance obligations and the risks of non-reporting.

A sense of relief and justice was palpable at the High Court in Wellington today as the man who lit the fatal Loafers Lodge fire was convicted of murder. But it was underscored by incredible heartache. A jury of 10 were unanimous in finding 50-year-old Esarona Lologa guilty of five counts of murder, and one of arson, for setting the Wellington hostel alight in 2023. Five people died in the deadly blaze: Michael Wahrlich, Melvin Parun, Peter O'Sullivan, Kenneth Barnard and Liam Hockings. Lauren Crimp reports.

Sarah Ferguson, Duchess of York, was named in High Court documents over large payments linked to Turkish businessman Selman Turk, who is accused of fraud. Records show that Ferguson received £225,000 from a company connected to Turk, while Prince Andrew was sent £750,000, allegedly as part of a wider scheme involving a Turkish woman's assets. Andrew has since repaid the money, but the case drew scrutiny because the funds were described in varying ways—as a wedding gift to Princess Beatrice, a fee for Ferguson's ambassador work, or other purposes—raising questions about transparency and judgment.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

The former teacher of two children who's remains were found hidden in suitcase three years ago has given tearful evidence before the High Court in Auckland today. Hakyung Lee, is on trial, accused of murdering her children six-year-old Minu and eight-year-old Yuna Jo. The Crown claims she was aware of her actions, while her appointed counsel argues she was insane at the time. Jurors heard evidence from a forensic toxicologist, and hospices nurses who had looked after Lee's husband, before attention turned in the afternoon to the two victims. Finn Blackwell reports.

The Government wants to deal with shoplifting offences in a quicker way instead of going through the entire court system. The Justice Minister's newly released Cabinet paper proposes the burden of proof should fall on the suspect to prove their innocence. This clashes with the right to be presumed innocent until proven guilty, as protected in the New Zealand Bill of Rights Act. But Paul Goldsmith told Mike Hosking this could be compared to a traffic offence. He says someone caught speeding is given a ticket and must pay a fine unless there is a reasonable excuse. He's also welcoming a High Court ruling that the decision to extradite Kim Dotcom was legal. The Megaupload millionaire had challenged Paul Goldsmith's decision to surrender him to the US earlier this year, arguing the charges against him are politically motivated. Dotcom fought the extradition process all the the way to the Supreme Court and his latest effort was a judicial review. The Justice Minister told Hosking he's pleased to see his decision upheld but notes there are still potential appeals to be had. The Dotcom legal battle began 13 years ago.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Legal and settlements reporter Jeremy Sharon joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. A new study conducted by a team of Israeli multidisciplinary researchers delves into accusations that Israel committed crimes against humanity, such as planned starvation and genocide during the war in Gaza. The authors’ objective was to conduct a rigorous factual analysis of the methodologies and evidence behind genocide claims. Sharon fills us in on how faulty source data used by reports accusing Israel of genocide may be partly to blame. Greta Thunberg has again set sail for Gaza on another so-called peace flotilla. We learn about the legalities of Israel's eventual interception and deportation of the crew. The High Court of Justice decided unanimously last week on Monday to recommend to the government that it cancel its decision to fire Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara. The court told the government to inform it by September 14 whether it accepted the court’s recommendation to abolish the new method for firing the attorney general that the government established in June, and by extension to cancel the dismissal of Baharav-Miara. The clock is ticking. What are the next potential moves? A kindergarten was opened in the illegal settlement outpost of Homesh on Monday, 20 years after it was evacuated under the 2005 disengagement plan, in a step that was praised by Education Minister Yoav Kisch and Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich as boosting Israel’s control over the West Bank.

I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Sunday morning, the 7th of September, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today.We go to the Gospel of Luke 20:2:“Tell us, by what authority are You doing these things? Or who is he who gave You this authority?” I looked up the Oxford Dictionary to find out the literal meaning of the word “authority”, and one of the meanings is “recognised knowledge or expertise.” Folks, Jesus had it all. He had the ability. Whenever He walked into a place, people stood back. Remember when the soldiers tried to arrest Him in the Garden of Gethsemane, the night He was betrayed? When He spoke, they fell to the ground. Peter recognised who Jesus was. He actually said to Him, ”Get away from me, Lord, for I am an unclean man,” when he saw the miracle that Jesus performed with the fish at the Sea of Galilee.They asked William Carey, the man who took the Gospel of Jesus Christ to India. The theologians questioned him and said, "What qualifications do you have?” One man, being very sarcastic, said, ”I believe, you are just a shoemaker.” “ Oh no, Sir.” He said. ”I'm not a shoemaker. I'm a cobbler. I can't make shoes, I can only repair them.” But I want to tell you that man translated the Bible into Sanskrit, into Hindustani, into languages that are so very difficult for anyone to understand. He became the Chief Interpreter in the High Court of Delhi.I want to say to you today, if Jesus Christ is your Lord and Saviour, if He has forgiven you of your sins, you have the authority, you have the power and the knowledge and the expertise to tell others about Him. Remember that song, I've sung it before, but I need to sing it again today with you. A beautiful song and I want you to sing it with me.He paid a debt, He did not owe,I owed the debt, I could not pay,I needed someone to wash my sins away.And now I sing a brand new song,Amazing Grace,Christ Jesus paid a debt that I could never pay.He paid a debt for me and He paid a debt for you. If you love Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour, that will give you the authority to go into all the world and tell people that the Lord Jesus Christ has given you the authority, and you are born again and you belong to Him!Go out today and sing that song from the top of your voice,Jesus bless you and goodbye.

This week, Spotlight secured a decisive victory in the High Court against Equity, with Justice Howells ruling that Spotlight is NOT an employment agency - and never has been. The case centred on whether Spotlight's platform for performers counts as an “employment agency.” The court confirmed Spotlight simply provides tools for actors to market themselves, not to find work on their behalf. Spotlight's MD, Matt Hood, called the ruling “a testament to the integrity of our operations” - and accused Equity of wasting actors' time, money and resources on a “cynical, performative” legal stunt.

Immigration returned to the headlines over the past week after the High Court granted an injunction forcing the removal of migrants from a hotel in Essex – a ruling that could have wider implications for similar cases across the country. At the same time, the sight of Union Jacks and St George's Crosses appearing in towns and cities has sparked a debate over whether flag-flying is a symbol of patriotism or a sign of growing division.On this podcast, originally recorded for Saturday's Coffee House Shots, Lucy Dunn is joined by Lord Hannan and trade unionist Paul Embery to ask: what kind of country is Britain becoming? Paul argues that rapid cultural change, combined with economic decline, has left many people feeling disoriented and neglected. Dan Hannan warns that national symbols once seen as unifying risk becoming sectarian markers, echoing Northern Ireland's politics of identity.They debate the failures of integration policy to the dangers of what Embery calls ‘soft Lebanonisation' – a creeping communalism in which people retreat into their own tribes. The political class have been slow to listen, leaving space for rising resentment over immigration and national identity. So, why is Britain so uncertain of its own identity? Produced by Oscar Edmondson and Patrick Gibbons. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Send us a textThis is a public talk I delivered on the concept of genocide and the arguments presented in the South African genocide charge against Israel in late 2023.  Several people who wanted to attend but could not asked if it could be recorded. We tried, but somehow that did not work out.  To the extent possible I tried to be scholarly and  analytical in this talk.  But how can we be scholarly and detached and analytical when we see Miss Rachel singing "hop little bunny" as a three-year-old Palestinian child dances gleefully around on her new artificial legs?  And the evening news (if you watch a good source) is beyond distressing.  There are times when I think of that line from Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness:  "The horror!  The horror!  I have delivered this talk three times, once at a university, once at a church, and once at a retirement community.  In all three cases, the audience was open and responsive, and the post-talk discussion was serious and engaging. I hope you find this talk helpful.  Also, I delivered a full hour-long podcast discussion of that South African document soon after it was filed with the High Court of Justice in the Hague. 

Firefighters have wiped tears from their eyes today as they've told a court of their efforts to save lives during the fatal Loafers Lodge fire in May 2023.

Immigration returned to the headlines this week after the High Court granted an injunction forcing the removal of migrants from a hotel in Essex – a ruling that could have wider implications for similar cases across the country. At the same time, the sight of Union Jacks and St George's Crosses appearing in towns and cities has sparked a debate over whether flag-flying is a symbol of patriotism or a sign of growing division.On today's Saturday edition of Coffee House Shots, Lucy Dunn is joined by Lord Hannan and trade unionist Paul Embery to ask: what kind of country is Britain becoming? Paul argues that rapid cultural change, combined with economic decline, has left many people feeling disoriented and neglected. Dan Hannan warns that national symbols once seen as unifying risk becoming sectarian markers, echoing Northern Ireland's politics of identity.On the podcast, they debate the failures of integration policy to the dangers of what Embery calls ‘soft Lebanonisation' – a creeping communalism in which people retreat into their own tribes. The political class have been slow to listen, leaving space for rising resentment over immigration and national identity. So, why is Britain so uncertain of its own identity? Produced by Oscar Edmondson and Patrick Gibbons.Become a Spectator subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.

GCSE results day has brought a mixed picture; the pass rate has fallen, yet the regional gap has reduced and the gender gap is the narrowest it has ever been. Isabel Hardman and Sir Nick Gibb, former Conservative schools minister, join James Heale to discuss education policy, how changing cultural expectations may be helping the gender gap and why Labour seem determined to attack the Conservatives' record on education. In Nick's words, is Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson a ‘more political figure than education figure'?Plus: how the recent High Court ruling over migrant hotels could spark a crisis for the government as more councils, including Labour-controlled ones, seek an end to the policy.Produced by Patrick Gibbons.Become a Spectator subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.

The Green Party leadership election is underway, pitting new MPs Adrian Ramsay and Ellie Chowns against London Assembly Member Zack Polanski. The Greens achieved their best ever result at the 2024 general election, but they've remained static in opinion polls ever since. Lucy Dunn and Luke Tryl of More in Common join Patrick Gibbons to try to make sense of this. As Luke says, the dynamics within the leadership election are symptomatic of a wider divide over party strategy – two of the seats they won last year come from more liberal, traditionally left-wing seats, while two others come from traditionally conservative-leaning, rural shires. Plus, does Corbyn's new party complicate any attempt to make them the anti-system party of the left?But first, what does the High Court migrant hotel ruling mean for the government? And will it help anti-system parties like the Greens and Reform?Produced by Patrick Gibbons.Become a Spectator subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.
