Human Rights Commission by TOPFM MAURITIUS

Mark Carney, speaking to the press from Parliament Hill, about measures to protect Canadian steel and aluminium industries. Donald Trump has escalated the ridiculous and illegal tariffs to be placed on Canadian steel products. One of the issues is, is that most of the North American aluminium mines exist in Canadian territories. So, Donald Trump claims that he doesn't need aluminium from Canada, that America has its aluminium. Well, that's not exactly true. He does need Canadian aluminium steel products, so Mr. Carney is announcing some measures to protect those products, to protect those industries from the tariffs and help keep all of those, all of those workers with jobs, and help keep them, keep the industry moving smoothly. Okay, so Mr. Carney is also joined by the ministers of finance and the Minister of Industry as well as the Minister of Intergovernmental Affairs, as he makes his announcement about protecting the steel and aluminium for Canada. This is also coming just a couple days after the end of the G7 summit in Alberta, if we also remember correctly, when there were some announcements about Iran and Israel and Mr. Trump left the talks early before think Mr. Carney and him could have some serious considerations about what it is they're going to talk about to find a really good financial path and trade deal for both the United States and Canada. Mr. Carney also said in an interview at the end of the G7 summit that there was an active and valid trade deal between the US and Canada with the USMCA. Human Rights Commission and inquiries into what is going on with the list, with the judicial end of holding people accountable for war crimes And and for withdrawing humanitarian aid and trying to starve people until they die off, limiting and and stealing, stealing and destruction of cultural items that would help future generations identify with being Palestinian. Military units can be held accountable. That individuals can also be held accountable for crimes against humanity and war crimes, for example, they're going to discuss this a little bit further, where Israeli citizens were held as hostages by The Hamas constitutes a war crimes and crimes against humanity. And with all that being said, they want to hold each individual accountable for their crimes. They are also discussion about some of the people that have been arrested, and they don't even know how many people Israel is holding accountable for such crimes because there hasn't been any due process put forth to or trials to put forth to figure out the evidence of Each individual as they had a part in the holding of Israeli hostage citizens hostage during the during that time period from It was almost two years, along with that, there they they have named individual units. They could be held accountable for the destruction of civilian sites in Gaza by the Israeli Defense Forces there, there, when they talk about accountability, want to make sure that people understand that not only could your military unit be held responsible, but you could be held responsible in certain acts, and they want to make sure that for these war crimes, that people are held responsible and that they do suffer some some consequences, and not just some military in some cases, some military tribunals have been held, and Israel has swept the results of those under the rug, rather than making it evident what the consequences were to soldiers who have committed such war crimes, or they have done things violence against women and civilians, or with withdrawing of humanitarian aid, such as food and clean water, they so this commission was to make sure that that these, these people who who commit these acts, are treated and shown to be criminals in a humanitarian way. So we're going to hear about that in this next episode. And we're going to also hear about from the United Nations press floor about ongoing military actions between Iran and Israel, as well as some other things that have come up between Palestine and Israel again, more recent actions and what the United Nations themselves are trying to do to push forward with humanitarian effort so that all parties have their rights supported, and all parties are acting within the rules of international law. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/policy-and-rights--3339563/support.

If you’ve ever been told your child is ‘defiant’, ‘rude’, or ‘lazy’—this episode is for you. Tania Waring is back to unpack how stress behaviours are misread as misbehaviour in classrooms. Drawing on her PhD research into co-regulation and inclusive education, Tania explains what’s really going on for ADHD and autistic students—and why the classroom itself can fuel or relieve their distress. We talk about why behaviour systems like marbles-in-the-jar and Dojo points don’t work for neurodivergent kids, and how regulation starts with the adult in the room. We cover practical ways teachers (and parents) can co-regulate, build trust, and support children in distress without punishing them for brain-based struggles. This episode is honest, emotional, and full of tools for both home and school. If you’ve ever felt alone advocating for your child—or if you’re a teacher desperate for something that actually works—this conversation will validate what you already know and help you name it out loud.

You walk into a school meeting hoping for support—and walk out feeling like the unreasonable parent again. In this no-fluff episode, Jane is joined by returning guest and neuroaffirming educator Millie Carr to rip the curtain off how Individual Education Plans (IEPs) are actually playing out in real classrooms. From broken communication and missing documentation to defensive staff and performative inclusion policies, this episode is a sharp, validating look at what’s really happening behind the school gate. If you’ve ever been told, ‘we can’t do that for everyone’, ‘they seem fine’, or your child’s support plan was ignored by day one of term—this one will make you feel less alone, and a hell of a lot more prepared.

Discussion Highlights:Global demographic megatrends include aging populations, declining fertility rates, and diverging regional population dynamics.Migration patterns involve both forced displacement from conflict zones such as Ukraine and Palestine and labor migration from the Western Balkans, with climate-related movement remaining unpredictable.Depopulation in the Western Balkans is driven by inaccurate census data, economic factors that incentivize emigration, steadily declining fertility rates, and cultural influences on family size.Many countries in the region face labor shortages as plumbers, electricians, and healthcare workers emigrate, prompting policy responses to attract migrant labor, cover an estimated €600 million integration cost in Croatia, and implement language instruction and integration programs.Populist political discourse often exploits public fears about migration, while political leaders frequently show reluctance to acknowledge domestic labor shortages and plan beyond short electoral cycles.Europe's geopolitical context is shaped by U.S.-China competition, the continuation of the war in Ukraine, and uneven or delayed European responses to crises, such as the conflict in Gaza.The current EU enlargement process is critiqued as overly merit-based, and many argue for the package accession of all Western Balkan states, drawing lessons from Croatia's recent membership and anticipating a changing nature of the future European Union.Bosnia and Herzegovina's post-Dayton governance system succeeded in halting widespread violence but remains hampered by persistent power-sharing gridlock, redundant international structures such as the Office of the High Representative, and ongoing challenges in constitutional and education system reforms.Thirty years after Dayton, instances of inter-ethnic violence have remained low since 1995, but schooling and commemorative practices remain fragmented, and domestic dialogue on wartime accountability has stalled.EU integration offers the potential to replace international oversight with European Union frameworks while addressing governance deficits, pervasive corruption, and the need for electoral reforms.About Alida VračićAlida Vračić is a political scientist and lawyer.

What happens when schools insist your child is fine - but everything in your gut says otherwise? In this powerful instalment of our school mini-series, Jane is joined again by Millie Carr - teacher, parent, and neurodivergent advocate - to unpack one of the most maddening experiences families face: being gaslit by educators who don’t “see” the struggle. If you’ve ever been told your child is “fine” at school while managing meltdowns, shutdowns, or burnout at home, this one will hit hard. Jane shares a deeply personal story of leaving a school that refused to acknowledge her daughter’s invisible needs - and Millie breaks down exactly why high-masking kids get overlooked, and what parents can do when they’re dismissed. Together, they explore: Why girls and high-masking kids are so often missed The damaging impact of visible vs invisible disability bias What to say in IEP meetings when schools won’t listen Why anxiety is often misdiagnosed when it’s really about unmet needs How PDA (Pathological Demand Avoidance) is misunderstood in schools—and what helps instead This episode will validate your fury, your heartbreak, and your instincts. You’re not imagining it. You’re not overreacting. And you’re not alone. Listen If: You’ve been told “we don’t see it” and felt dismissed Your child is different at school than at home—and no one believes you You’re exhausted from advocating and need to feel seen You want practical strategies for navigating resistant schools Other Episodes with Millie Carr S1 E41: Camouflaging ADHD + Autistic Traits in Girls with Millie Carr | Spotify | Apple Podcast S3 E2: SCHOOL SERIES When School Becomes the Trauma — What No One Tells ADHD Parents | Spotify | Apple Podcast S3 E3: SCHOOL SERIES When School Becomes the Trauma — What No One Tells ADHD Parents | Spotify | Apple Podcast Episode on PDA: S2E30: Could it be PDA?

If your kid has been labelled ‘disruptive’, ‘too much’, or has a 'behaviour problem’ at school - this episode is for you. In this raw, honest, and fiercely educational conversation, Jane is joined by Tania Waring - lawyer-turned-PhD researcher, mum of three neurodivergent boys, and longtime education advocate. They go into what’s really happening when ADHD and autistic kids are ‘acting out’ - and why so many schools are punishing trauma responses, not managing them. This episode isn’t polite. It’s personal, practical, and painfully real. From school exclusions and behaviour plans to Human Rights Commission complaints and fighting for basic inclusion - this one’s for every parent who’s been dismissed, gaslit, and told their child doesn’t belong. Trigger warning: briefly mentions suicide ideation of a child.

In the last of our interviews about the recent Supreme Court ruling on the definition of a woman under the Equality Act, Nuala McGovern speaks to Baroness Kishwer Falkner, Chair of the Equality and Human Rights Commission. As the body responsible for enforcing the Act, the EHRC gave evidence in the Supreme Court case. In the first BBC interview since launching a consultation on updating their Code of Practice in light of the judgment, Baroness Falkner explains who they want to hear from and why.Five years after the murder of George Floyd, a black man, by a white police officer in Minneapolis, a new BBC documentary is reflecting on the wave of Black Lives Matter protests that followed, including in the UK. Backlash: The Murder of George Floyd tells the story through the eyes of some of those who found themselves on the frontline during the spring and summer of 2020, including Khady Gueye, who made headlines after a local protest she planned in the Forest of Dean was initially cancelled. She joins Nuala, along with author, producer and speaker Nova Reid, to reflect on the impact the events of that time have had on their lives, and what has changed since then. Nuala is also joined by Sarah Pochin, the first female MP for the Reform UK Party. The Runcorn and Helsby by-election was won by just six votes - the closest result in modern history. A former Conservative Councillor and mayor for Cheshire East, Sarah was a magistrate for 20 years. During her maiden speech she focussed on immigration, the cost of living and sexual violence against women.Presenter: Nuala McGovern Producer: Andrea Kidd

Sister Rosetta Tharpe was known as the ‘godmother of rock and roll' and influenced countless musicians from Elvis to Johnny Cash. Now Olivier Award-winning performer Beverley Knight is playing Sister Rosetta in a new production, Marie and Rosetta, which has just opened at the Rose Theatre in London. It tells the story of Rosetta and her singing partner, Marie Knight, described as one of the most remarkable and revolutionary duos in music history. Beverley joins Nuala McGovern in the Woman's Hour studio to discuss how the show hopes to restore these forgotten musical heroines to the spotlight. The Government has announced that care workers will no longer be recruited from overseas as part of a crackdown on visas for lower-skilled workers.

However many women still remain undiagnosed for decades of their lives, with those in their 40s, 50s and 60s only now discovering they have it for the first time. Jo Beazley was diagnosed with ADHD just two years ago at the age of 49, after her symptoms worsened during the menopause. She joins Nuala along with Amanda Kirby, the former chair of the ADHD Foundation and a professor in the field of neurodiversity. This week we'll be hearing different perspectives on the recent Supreme Court ruling on the definition of a woman under the Equality Act, and how it could and should be interpreted on the ground. The Equality and Human Rights Commission has issued interim guidance that, in places open to the public, trans women shouldn't use women's facilities such as toilets. Today Nuala speaks to Robin Moira White, a barrister who specialises in taking discrimination cases, and who is also a trans woman. Robin transitioned in 2011 and is co-author of A Practical Guide to Transgender Law. Presenter: Nuala McGovern Producer: Sarah Jane Griffiths

Ukraine and the US disagree over whether peace talks should encompass formally recognising Russian sovereignty over occupied Ukrainian territory, we explore the appetite of Ukrainians for conceding land to Russia.As we came on air the UK's Equality and Human Rights Commission released interim guidance to highlight what it says are "the main consequences" of the recent Supreme Court judgement that in the 2010 Equality Act references to a person's sex must be taken to mean their biological sex. The guidance says workplaces and services open to the public should only permit people to use toilet facilities according to their biological sex.And what's behind the unlikely controversy surrounding the Bayeux Tapestry?

Today, we look at what yesterday's Supreme Court ruling means for the NHS.The NHS will be pursued if it doesn't follow new guidance on single-sex spaces the chairwoman of the Equality and Human Rights Commission has said. Currently the NHS guidance says trans people should be accommodated according to the way they dress, their names and their pronouns. Under the ruling this would be scrapped. Adam is joined by BBC's social affairs editor Alison Holt and BBC's health editor Hugh Pym.Also, officials from Ukraine, the US and Europe have been meeting today in Paris to discuss a peace deal.

Three of South Africa's Chapter Nine Institutions, the CRL Rights Commission, the Commission for Gender Equality, and the Human Rights Commission have announced a joint Commission of Inquiry into the recent acquittal of Nigerian televangelist Pastor Timothy Omotoso and his two co-accused. Last week, the Gqeberha High Court cleared them of all 32 charges, including rape, sexual assault, human trafficking, and racketeering. Following the ruling, the three institutions held a media briefing in Johannesburg to address systemic failures in the justice system. Elvis Presslin spoke to George Mahlangu, Deputy Chairperson of the CRL Rights Commission, to shed light on this development

A Black South African music executive is being investigated by the Human Rights Commission for claiming that Whites are inferior.Nhlamulo ‘Nota' Baloyi is a South African hip hop exec who says wild things on a podcast called The Hustler's Corner.I invited him onto my podcast because of his claim that Whites are inferior to Blacks, which has upset many and landed him before the South African Human Rights Commission (SAHRC) for Hate Speech.To be clear, I don't think expressing an opinion should be penalised by the state. After all, how is saying that Whites are inferior to Blacks a violation of anybody's human rights?

In this episode of the General Knowledge Podcast, hosts General Maddox and Ethan Nash delve into recent political and media events in Australia, highlighting concerns about free speech, human rights, and government overreach. They discuss the shift to using the Brave browser for better communication and privacy, emphasizing the importance of independent platforms in an era of increasing digital surveillance. The conversation also touches on developments at TOTT News, where Ethan has been actively covering issues that mainstream outlets avoid. A portion of the episode is dedicated to Ethan's recent interview with Pete Evans, a controversial figure who has re-emerged in the public eye. They reflect on how their past discussions were dominated by COVID-related uncertainties, whereas now, Evans shares insights on broader topics such as personal sovereignty, skepticism of political figures like Trump and Musk, and his new book with RFK Jr.'s Children's Health Defense. The hosts note how mainstream media often distorts figures like Evans, portraying them in extreme ways while ignoring their nuanced viewpoints. The episode also critiques media manipulation and orchestrated narratives, particularly surrounding new hate speech laws. The hosts argue that many of these policies aim to preemptively criminalize dissent rather than genuinely protect marginalized groups. They reference staged media events and shifts in political allegiances, observing how public perception is often shaped by carefully controlled messaging. The rise of surveillance and “pre-crime” tactics, where individuals can be flagged for opinions rather than actions, is identified as a worrying trend in modern governance. The discussion then pivots to the Australian Human Rights Commission's recent report, which criticizes the government's handling of COVID-19. Ethan and General Maddox highlight how draconian restrictions violated fundamental rights, with citizens unable to visit loved ones or move freely. They question why institutions like the Human Rights Commission remained silent during the crisis but are now releasing reports acknowledging past mistakes. This leads to broader concerns about whether such reports will result in meaningful policy changes or simply serve as retrospective damage control. Closing out the episode, the hosts encourage listeners to stay informed, challenge mainstream narratives, and support independent media. They express concern about the road to 2030, noting increasing government control over digital spaces, financial systems, and personal freedoms. Despite the challenges, they remain committed to providing alternative perspectives and exposing agendas that often go unnoticed by the general public.

New Zealand's internet safety agencies took aggressive legal action against the Human Rights Commission, after it called out social media giants for failing to protect Jacinda Ardern from vicious online abuse. Guyon Espiner has the story.

A new survey by The Human Rights Commission shows the majority of New Zealanders agree that harmonious race relations through honouring Te Tiriti is important. 

The Human Rights Commission has received at least 100 complaints about the digital flyer, that asks the public to help "track" soldiers down and "let them know they're not welcome here". Foreign Minister Winston Peters spoke to Corin Dann.

The Palestinian Solidarity Network Aotearoa's launched what it calls a 'genocide hotline' - asking people to report sightings of Israeli Defence Force soldiers holidaying in New Zealand. It's part of their campaign against the war on Gaza, and it says the focus is not Israeli or Jewish people - but IDF soldiers.
