Brenda Hale, Baroness Hale of Richmond, is a former judge who served as the first female president of the Supreme Court. In 2019 she announced the court's judgement that the prorogation of Parliament was ‘unlawful, void and of no effect'. The twinkling spider brooch she wore that day caused a sensation and set social media aflame. She was the first woman and the youngest person to be appointed to the Law Commission and in 2004 became the UK's first woman law lord.Lady Hale was born in Yorkshire and read law at the University of Cambridge where she graduated top of her class. She spent almost 20 years in academia and also practised as a barrister. Later at the Law commission she led the work on what became the 1989 Children Act. Lady Hale retired as a judge in January 2020.DISC ONE: Messiah - Part 1: O Thou That Tellest Good Tidings To Zion, composed by Georg Friedrich Händel, performed by Kathleen Ferrier and The London Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by Sir Adrian Boult DISC TWO: Love Me Do by The Beatles DISC THREE: Move Him Into The Sun.

Three former Supreme Court justices, including Lady Hale and Lord Sumption, have joined more than 600 legal experts in urging the UK government to halt weapons sales to Israel. They argue that continuing to sell weapons would make the UK complicit in grave breaches of international law, including potential violations of the genocide convention.In a heated discussion Steve Hedley and Julia Hartley-Brewer clash over the issue of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the accusations of genocide. Steve accused Julia of being a Zionist troll and a genocide enabler, while Julia defended her stance and condemned the unnecessary deaths of civilians in war.The debate highlighted the deep divide in opinions on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, with Steve insisting on condemning Israel for genocide and Julia maintaining that civilians should not die in war, but stopping short of condemning Israel.#israel #palestine #stevehedley #gaza #hamas Click here for more from TalkTV https://talk.tvIf you need any help visit: https://talk.tv/helplines Hosted on Acast.

Baroness Hale of Richmond is a pioneering female legal mind who became President of the Supreme Court in the U.K. Baroness Hale of Richmond was invited to give the Sir Winston Churchill Memorial Lecture by the British Luxembourg Society this week; only the second woman in its history to have done so, the first being Margaret Thatcher. Her talk was entitled “The Independence of the Judiciary and some of its Enemies”. Baroness Hale is, in the words of criminal barrister Gareth Weetman, ‘legal royalty'. Her fame grew beyond the world of legal minds when, as President of the Supreme Court, she had to deliver the verdict that Boris Johnson's prorogation of parliament was “void and of no effect”. She did so whilst wearing a demure black dress adorned with a striking spider brooch. In this interview at RTL she wore her favourite brooch - two mating dragonflies. Lady Hale's life story is now available in her book, Spider Woman. I highly suggest you listen to it in audible format, with Lady Hale herself as narrator. This highlights the sparkle and keen sense of intelligence in her voice. During this interview, we start with the ‘Spider' story and move onto whether Lady Hale believes British Parliament is in favour of an independent judiciary, or whether she feels the Supreme Court justices are influenced by Government. We also mention Suella Braverman, as the Supreme Court very recently ruled her idea of sending refugees coming to the UK to Rwanda as unlawful. In Lady Hale's lifetime as an academic, Law Commissioner, High Court Judge, Lord Justice of Appeal, Lord of Appeal in Ordinary, and finally President of the Supreme Court of the United Kingdom, Lady Hale has effected great change in the legal rights of women, children and those with mental health issues, amongst much else. In this long discussion we have a glimpse into the life of an extremely agile mind that has developed British law for the benefit of a greater proportion of society. Lady Hale believes we need more basic education of the judiciary processes in school in order to understand how law is there for the benefit of society; how things link together. Her only daughter, Julia Hoggett, is CEO at the London Stock Exchange, and is another trailblazer in her own right. Lady Hale's late second-husband, Julian Farrand, had the wonderful piece of advice: "All I want is more than enough". Lady Hale is the middle of three daughters who all became Head Girl of their school in Yorkshire and the only ladies to marry 30 miles beyond their home village. Her parents were accomplished teachers and her father's sudden death aged just 49, when she was 13, developed a core of resilience and non-dependence on a man for income. Baroness Hale was accompanied by Sir Nicholas Forwood KC.

Our guest today is one of the greatest of Britons. Lady Hale was, until her retirement three years ago, the President of the Supreme Court of the United Kingdom – the most senior judge in the country. Peter sat down with Lady Hale at her London home for a conversation about her life, her love of history and memoir Spider Woman. After this she took him back to 1925, a pivotal year for the law and women's rights. For women, the 1920s were a progressive time. Figures like Eleanor Rathbone and Viscountess Rhonda led movements such as the National Union of Societies for Equal Citizenship and the Six Point Group. In 1925 three particularly important pieces of legislation passed through Parliament. Here she tells us about each of them. Lady Hale is the author of Spider Woman.

A lifelong smasher of glass-ceilings, Lady Hale is an inspirational figure admired for her historic achievements and for the causes she has championed. As President of the Supreme Court, Lady Hale won global attention in finding the 2019 prorogation of Parliament to be unlawful. Yet that dramatic moment was merely the pinnacle of a career as a pioneering reformer, which saw her become the first woman and the youngest person to be appointed to the Law Commission; the first and only woman to become a Lord of Appeal in Ordinary; and the first woman to serve on the newly created Supreme Court, serving as President from 2017 to 2020. She is interviewed live by Mark Lawson as part of Raworths Harrogate Literature Festival

Judge and former President of the Supreme Court, Lady Hale, chooses to nominate the suffragette, businesswoman, and founder of Time and Tide magazine, Margaret Haig Thomas, also known as Lady Rhondda. Born in 1883, Lady Rhondda was brought up an only child, in South Wales, by her feminist parents. She survived the sinking of the Lusitania and sat on the board of 33 companies, becoming, in 1926, the first and to-date only female president of the Institute of Directors. In 1927, the New York Tribune called her ‘the foremost woman of business in the British Empire'. She was also one of the most prominent British feminists of the inter-war years, marching with the Pankhursts and setting fire to a letterbox, for which she was briefly sent to Usk prison. Lady Rhondda was also the founder and editor of the pioneering, hugely influential weekly paper Time and Tide, which featured women's perspectives and essays by literary greats from Orwell to Bernard Shaw and Virginia Woolf. The Former President of the Supreme Court, Brenda Hale, believes Lady Rhondda's most important lesson is "that there are always new battles to be fought...You must never give up. You must always go on." With expert insight from Angela V. John, Honorary Professor of History. Produced by Ellie Richold for BBC Audio in Bristol

Well this one was quite intimidating, to be honest. My guest this week is Baroness Hale of Richmond, one of this country's finest legal minds. She was the first woman President of the supreme court, the youngest and first female commissioner to be appointed to the Law Commission and has been dubbed the Beyoncé of the legal world owing to her popularity among young law students. But you might just know her best for her spider brooch, which she wore in 2019 while delivering a stinging ruling finding Boris Johnson's prorogation of Parliament to be unlawful. Her memoir, Spider Woman: A Life, has just been published. Lady Hale joins me to talk about battling sexism in law, her failures at school and academia, the loss of her father at a young age, the death of her beloved husband during Covid and her 'abject failure to knit a dishcloth aged five.'

HOW DO WE PRESERVE BRITAIN AS A TOLERANT PLACE?In Episode 9 of Do Not Adjust Your Focus, the podcast from strategic and creative advisory firm Blurred, Stuart talks to business woman and campaigner Gina Miller, who twice initiated legal challenges against the government standing up for Parliamentary democracy… And won.Her first victory came in September 2017, when the Supreme Court ruled in favour of giving MPs a say over triggering Article 50 - the legal mechanism taking the UK out of the EU.Her second victory came in September 2019, when the Supreme Court ruled that Boris Johnson's decision to suspend Parliament was unlawful.Consequently known as one of the most prominent names and faces of Remain and somewhat of a figurehead of the pro-EU camp, Gina and Stuart discussed some of today’s major battles: Europe, ESG, ethics and education, highlighting why we must preserve Britain as a tolerant place, now more than ever.You can listen to this and previous episodes here, and subscribe on Apple, Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts.

Brenda Hale asks what it means in the year 2020 to get a fair hearing.

TESTO DELL'ARTICOLO ➜http://www.bastabugie.it/it/articoli.php?id=6153UTERO IN AFFITTO? IN INGHILTERRA TE LO PAGA LO STATO di Manuela AntonacciIncredibile ma vero. Lo scorso aprile la Corte Suprema del Regno Unito ha fatto sapere ufficialmente ai contribuenti britannici che, in futuro, il National Health Service (NHS), ovvero il Servizio Sanitario Pubblico britannico, nonostante siano scarse le risorse finanziarie per le cure mediche essenziali, sarà costretto ad elargire somme a sei cifre per chi voglia fare ricorso alla pratica dell'utero in affitto in un paese extra britannico, perché in Inghilterra è vietato.Il peso maggiore in questa storia l'ha avuto Brenda Marjorie Hale, nota come Lady Hale, che è stata una giudice britannica, presidente della Corte Suprema del Regno Unito dal 2017 al 2020, la quale, in passato, si era occupata del caso di una donna a cui aveva fatto avere un risarcimento importante (di ben 560.000 sterline) per alcuni gravi errori clinici che, a causa di una diagnosi tardiva di cancro all'utero, le avevano reso impossibile portare avanti una gravidanza.C'è però un piccolo particolare: la donna in questione, il cui nome per ragioni di privacy non viene svelato, aveva già ricevuto più di 74.000 sterline per poter pagare quattro gravidanze con maternità surrogata, a cui aveva fatto ricorso, usando i suoi ovuli. Ben quattro perché la donna desiderava anche una famiglia numerosa. Eppure se questa richiesta di risarcimento fosse stata respinta, il sistema sanitario nazionale, avrebbe avuto denaro sufficiente per poter pagare circa 100 interventi per protesi al ginocchio e all' anca, destinate a pazienti che sono in lista d'attesa ormai da lungo tempo. Un caso, insomma, che rappresenta un importante precedente in merito alla recente decisione della Corte Suprema del Regno Unito.Eppure proprio Lady Hale si è autodefinita un'ardente attivista per i diritti delle donne, ma quali diritti? Quelle delle madri surrogate che verranno, dopo essere state sfruttate adeguatamente come banali involucri, tenute ben lontane dalle coste britanniche? Di quali diritti stiamo parlando? Viene piuttosto da chiedersi... siamo di fronte ad una nuova forma di schiavitù o di colonialismo?Nota di BastaBugie: ecco altre notizie dal "gaio" mondo gay (sempre meno gaio).LA FIGLIA DI BRAD PITT E ANGELINA JOLIE SI FA CHIAMARE JOHNIl 27 maggio scorso Shiloh, la figlia di Brad Pitt e Angelina Jolie, ha compiuto 14 anni. Shiloh vuole farsi chiamare John e ama vestire da maschio, facendosi tagliare i capelli corti. Tempo fa la madre ha spiegato che la figlia «si sente un ragazzo, si fa chiamare John, quindi abbiamo deciso di assecondarla». Sulla stessa lunghezza d'onda il padre il quale pare che abbia dichiarato, in occasione del compleanno della figlia, che approva la sua decisione e adora il fatto che lei sia sempre stata fedele a se stessa.Ci sbaglieremo pure, ma noi invece vediamo solo il sintomo di un disagio di questa ragazzina cresciuta in un ambiente molto sopra le righe ed ora contesa da genitori separati. Un disagio comune a molti figli di coppie separate il quale si può esprimere in moltissime forme. Shiloh ha deciso di negare la propria identità, un modo ingannevole per fuggire da una realtà dolorosa e che dovrebbe trovare amorevole opposizione nei genitori e non entusiastico consenso.(Gender Watch News, 1° giugno 2020)POVIA E LA POLEMICA SUL GAY MANCATOIl cantante Povia, ospite del programma della Rai Vieni da me, racconta che fa le pulizie di casa e afferma di essere «un gay mancato». La conduttrice Caterina Balivo, ossequiosa del politicamente corretto, si infuria e lo rimprovera così: «Scusa, ma hai detto un'altra cretinata, Povia». Il cantante la prende in giro nuovamente e le ribatte: «sono un di lei mancato»."Scherza coi fanti ma lascia stare i gay" si potrebbe commentare. I Gay Pride offendono la sensibilità religiosa di tutti, ma la categoria dei gay non può essere fatta oggetto nemmeno di una battuta.(Gender Watch News, 11 maggio 2020)COMPENDIO DELLA DOTTRINA SOCIALE DELLA CHIESA E OMOSESSUALITÀCosa dice il Compendio della Dottrina Sociale della Chiesa, volume pubblicato dal Pontificio Consiglio della Giustizia e della Pace, sull'omosessualità? «Un problema particolare collegato alle unioni di fatto è quello riguardante la richiesta di riconoscimento giuridico delle unioni omosessuali, sempre più oggetto di pubblico dibattito. Soltanto un'antropologia rispondente alla piena verità dell'uomo può dare una risposta appropriata al problema, che presenta diversi aspetti sia sul piano sociale che ecclesiale. Alla luce di tale antropologia si rivela "quanto sia incongrua la pretesa di attribuire una realtà ´coniugale´ all'unione fra persone dello stesso sesso. Vi si oppone, innanzi tutto, l'oggettiva impossibilità di far fruttificare il connubio mediante la trasmissione della vita, secondo il progetto inscritto da Dio nella stessa struttura dell'essere umano. È di ostacolo, inoltre, l'assenza dei presupposti per quella complementarità interpersonale che il Creatore ha voluto, tanto sul piano fisico-biologico quanto su quello eminentemente psicologico, tra il maschio e la femmina. È soltanto nell'unione fra due persone sessualmente diverse che può attuarsi il perfezionamento del singolo, in una sintesi di unità e di mutuo completamento psico-fisico".La persona omosessuale deve essere pienamente rispettata nella sua dignità e incoraggiata a seguire il piano di Dio con un impegno particolare nell'esercizio della castità. Il doveroso rispetto non significa legittimazione di comportamenti non conformi alla legge morale né, tanto meno, il riconoscimento di un diritto al matrimonio tra persone dello stesso sesso, con la conseguente equiparazione della loro unione alla famiglia: "Se dal punto di vista legale il matrimonio tra due persone di sesso diverso fosse solo considerato come uno dei matrimoni possibili, il concetto di matrimonio subirebbe un cambiamento radicale, con grave detrimento del bene comune. Mettendo l'unione omosessuale su un piano giuridico analogo a quello del matrimonio o della famiglia, lo Stato agisce arbitrariamente ed entra in contraddizione con i propri doveri"».(Gender Watch News, 24 aprile 2020)

In this episode, Billy and Ellie discuss the life, career and significant cases of Lady Hale. 

Architect Elsie Owusu discusses the refurbishment of the Supreme Court building with Lady Hale. The creation of the Supreme Court in 2009 was a defining moment in UK legal history. And in architectural history, too. It was decided to refurbish the century-old Middlesex Guildhall which stands in London's Parliament Square. At the time it housed seven Crown Courts and was, according to Lady Hale, 'cluttered and gloomy'. Lady Hale, who has recently retired as the first female President of the Supreme Court, was involved in the renovation process, and worked alongside Elsie Owusu who was one of the architects. Just over 10 years on, they get together to discuss what they wanted to achieve: a building of 'light and transparency' which would mirror the aims of the Supreme Court itself.

The cultural anarchists are back for another not-so-serious look at the serious world of books and the arts, and kicking things off this week is the Nobel Prize for Literature - which was suspended for a year because of allegations of sexual harassment.    So this year should be better, right? RIGHT?   After that we discover that the Booker prize is also in the news for both right and wrong reasons, new additions to the Oxford English Dictionary, a new children’s book featuring Lady Hale of the Supreme Court, and a whole lot more.  If you've enjoyed this podcast then please share us with your friends or leave us a rating on your podcast app of choice.

Alex and Amar discuss the Supreme Court decision in the Miller/Cherry case and other Brexit developments, and cover party conference season (including an interview with Eloise Todd).

Comedians Ribs Norman and Mat Wills* chat about the lighter news stories of the week, including the return of hitchhiking, the app that helps you sit far away from babies on planes (plus Matt's solution, which is rather final in its approach), how the wrong kind of bird seed can make your garden go to pot, the very important work of the Roundabout Appreciation Society, the dastardly School Milk Snatcher, the return of the brooch courtesy of Lady Hale and her sparkly spider, and our official request that Sandi Toksvig does not feature in the reboot of Spitting Image (because we love her).

Cambridge Women in Law (CWIL) is an exciting new social network of alumnae at the Faculty of Law, University of Cambridge, which features a diverse range of women from all sectors. CWIL was officially launched on 27 September with an event to mark the centenary of the passing of the Sex Disqualification (Removal) Act 1919, when women were finally allowed to practise. The aim of the event, which coincided with the Cambridge Alumni Festival, was to celebrate the contribution of Law alumnae into legal practice and to the wider world. The Faculty also hosted an exhibition of the much heralded First 100 Years Project (https://first100years.org.uk/). The event was divided into three parts: The first was a panel focusing on issues facing women in practice. Second there was a panel which was oriented around women who have had an impact on the world outside practice, such as in the field of public policy. Finally, there was a discussion with UK Supreme Court Justices Lady Hale and Lady Arden. Equality and diversity were key discussion themes throughout. For more information and to sign up to the CWIL mailing list to receive information about future news and events, see https://www.law.cam.ac.uk/cwil, or get in touch with the Faculty Development Officer Clare Gordon (cwil@law.cam.ac.uk).

The Brexit week began with Lady Hale delivering a famous judgement against Prime Minister Boris Johnson. That might have been expected to dominate the news for days, but Johnson, prematurely returned to Westminster, produced another 'dead cat', whipping his parliamentary opponents into a frenzy with his use of what they called dangerous language. Looking on from Brussels, the European negotiators believed they were watching hopes of any deal passing the Commons evaporate. To discuss the week that was, political editor Pat Leahy is joined by public affairs editor Simon Carswell and Nick Gutteridge, a Brussels-based journalist with The Sun,.

The Supreme Court has ruled that Boris Johnson's decision to prorogue Parliament was unlawful, turning a page on the country's constitution. The Supreme Court president Lady Hale said "the effect on the fundamentals of democracy was extreme." The Prime Minister responded that he "strongly disagrees" with the ruling but will "respect" it. So is British democracy at a crossroads? In an extended edition of the Briefing Room, David Aaronovitch asks who is running Britain and is it now time to have a written constitution.CONTRIBUTORS:Alison Young, Professor of Public Law, University of Cambridge.Philip Norton, Professor of Government, and Director of the Centre for Legislative Studies, University of HullDavid Allen Green, contributing editor to the Financial Times and lawyer at Preiskel & CoMichael Keating, Director of the Centre on Constitutional Change at Edinburgh University and Professor of Politics, at the University of Aberdeen.

NO ES PATRIMONIO DE LA HUMANIDAD. En su primer discurso en la ONU el presidente brasileño, Jair Bolsonaro, afirmó que el Amazonas no es patrimonio de la humanidad, defendió la "soberanía" sobre esa región, y recibió elogios de Donald Trump y críticas por todos lados. El mandatario brasileño aseguró que la selva amazónica "no está siendo devastada ni destruida por el fuego, Brasil es muy distinto de aquel impreso en los diarios" extranjeros a través de una cobertura "sensacionalista". El Instituto Brasileño de Pesquisas Espaciales (INPE), del estado brasileño, informó que entre enero y agosto los incendios amazónicos fueron el 90 por ciento más extensos que en el mismo período de 2018. CNN   ESTADOS UNIDOS PRIMERO. El presidente Donald Trump llevó su mensaje nacionalista de "Estados Unidos primero" en un discurso que abarcó desde su política migratoria y la defensa de "los derechos humanos" hasta la guerra comercial con China y su política dura con Irán, Venezuela, Cuba y Nicaragua. Mencionó también la modificación del NAFTA que negoció con México y Canadá al tiempo que mencionó a Nicaragua, Cuba y Venezuela como pueblos que viven bajo la opresión brutal. Mientras tanto la Cámara de Representantes investiga si el presidente norteamericano presionó a Ucrania para difamar a su rival político, el ex vicepresidente Joe Biden y hablan de IMPEACHMENT. El mandatario negó las acusaciones y ordenó difundir la transcripción completa de la conversación con Volodymyr Zelenskiy. CLARIN | BBC   ÍCONO GLOBAL. Greta Thunberg se convirtió en un ícono global en la lucha contra el cambio climático. En su corta carrera activista, la niña sueca, de 16 años de edad, además de su reciente paso por Naciones Unidas en Nueva York, ya habló en la Conferencia de las Naciones Unidas sobre el Cambio Climático de 2018, en el Foro Económico Mundial (enero de 2019), ante el Comité Económico y Social Europeo y recientemente ha sido invitada de honor en la Asamblea Nacional francesa. Los amantes de los deportes recordarán cuando decidió no volar en avión hasta Nueva York y se lanzó a la aventura de cruzar el océano Atlántico en yate. Además de todo esto, tres políticos noruegos han propuesto presentarla como candidata a Premio Nobel de la Paz. INFOBAE   JOHNSON ACTUÓ ILEGALMENTE. El máximo tribunal de Gran Bretaña dictaminó que Boris Johnson actuó ilegalmente cuando suspendió al Parlamento, un fallo sin precedentes que empujará la política del país a, nos atrevemos a decir, una agitación aún más profunda. Lady Hale, la primera mujer en sentarse en la Corte Suprema británica, derribó el martillo en tonos tranquilos, cortados y fascinantes. La decisión unánime de la corte fue una rotunda derrota para el primer ministro británico, lo que le dio al Parlamento un momento crucial para debatir la retirada programada del país de la Unión Europea el 31 de octubre. El Parlamento vuelve a la sesión hoy miércoles, casi tres semanas antes de lo que el Sr. Johnson había planeado.   ANSA LATINA   JUEGOS ODESUR 2020. El presidente de la República, Mario Abdo Benítez, confirmó que están estudiando la posibilidad de volver recuperar la sede de los Juegos Odesur 2022 y anunció que está semana se tendrían novedades. Así lo informó el mandatario, quien instruyó a sus colaboradores a estudiar los números y la factibilidad de volver a organizar los Juegos Odesur previstos para el 2022. Paraguay había renunciado a la sede en julio de este año alegando problemas económicos y sociales. ABC TINDER TV. Las fuentes dijeron a Reuters que la popular aplicación de citas acaba de terminar la filmación de su primera serie de televisión, que según se informa será una serie de video original con guión y una historia apocalíptica.

Una de las comedias más populares en la historia de la televisión se dirige a Netflix. La compañía compró los derechos exclusivos de los 180 episodios de Seinfeld. El momento es crítico, ya que Netflix pronto perderá los derechos de otras comedias nostálgicas populares, incluidas The Office y Friends. EFE GALAXY FOLD. La gente en los Estados Unidos finalmente tendrá en sus manos el renovado Galaxy Fold de Samsung el viernes.  El gigante de la electrónica comenzará a vender dos versiones del Galaxy Fold, un modelo para la red de AT&T y una variante desbloqueada, nueve días después de que el teléfono plegable llegue al Reino Unido y Alemania, y tres semanas después de su lanzamiento en Corea del Sur.

EL PAIS  

Incredible scenes on a monumental day, as guests Schona Jolly QC and David Allen Green hotfoot it across London to join Naomi Smith in Remainiacs HQ.Just how damning was the Supreme Court judgment on Johnson’s illegal prorogation? How on earth can the Government brief against the most significant constitutional judgment in – possibly – centuries? Where do we go from here? Should we all go out and get drunk? And who would pick fight with Lady Hale, with her laser eye and her spider brooch? “The Government can study this as long as they want. There’s no route for them to appeal it.” Presented by Naomi Smith, recorded by Elsie Bath at Soho Radio. Remainiacs is a Podmasters Production.

On Tuesday we’re expecting that the judges of the highest court in the land will rule on whether Boris Johnson’s decision to shut down parliament ahead of next month’s Brexit deadline was legal or not. Scottish judges have already declared it unlawful Just a few weeks ago very few of us could name the most recent Supreme Court case, but it’s suddenly the centre of attention. The live-stream of the first day of the hearing there last week was watched by more than 4 million viewers making this arguably the World Cup final of constitutional law. Today we’re asking more about the remit of the Supreme Court: why cases about access to toilets make the cut, who is in charge, and how Supreme Court justice Lady Hale came to be nicknamed the ‘Beyoncé of the judiciary’. The BBC’s Dominic Casciani and former barrister and legal journalist Afua Hirsch have been paying very close attention to recent proceedings, and came to the studio to answer our questions.

Jodie started her own law firm, Thrive Law, at 29 and 15 months later she has 10 staff. Thrive Law is a specialist law firm, based in Leeds. The company specialises in employment law, with a focus on HR and mental health in the workplace. She graduated from Leeds Beckett in law in 2009, trained as a barrister and a solicitor, became qualified while working for Milners and at the same time started lecturing in law part time. She has worked pro bono for Mind and has been elected a Fellow of the Royal Society for Public Health for her contributions to mental health in the workplace. At the same time as setting up Thrive Law, she has set up two networking groups, Thriving Minds and Thrive Women. Her prolific output is partly the outcome of a prodigious amount of energy and partly motivated by her personal experience, specifically a breakdown in 2017. Jodie has started a campaign for mandatory mental health risk assessments for workplaces. Anyone can sign the petition, which can be accessed via the Thrive Law website under mental health. Thrive Law is going to be trialling a four-day week based on the condensed hours model in August. This is all part of Jodie's goals to empower women and to empower people with disabilities. Flexible working helps both of these categories (everyone has a disability at Thrive). If it is successful it will be introduced for all staff next year. Jodie manages people the way she would like to be managed. Authenticity is important to her – “I practice what I preach.” She is honest about her own struggles. The outcome is high productivity, high engagement, low sickness and great client feedback. Setting out on her own at 29 is quite an achievement, especially in the legal field, where the average age of qualification as a solicitor is 35 and the average of a partner 65. The greatest learning challenge has been recruiting the right people. This made her re-evaluate her processes. Now she has a two-phase process with a telephone interview followed by an interview that explores both technical capability and attitude. Getting the induction process right is important to her. Jodie's personal development plan combines learning within the business with the parallel development of her general wellbeing. She does a lot of reflection and journaling. She sets herself short term and long-term goals every year. At present she is learning Spanish. Prior to setting up Thrive she was “consumed” by the world of work. Now she has a life outside of work. Every member of staff has a personal development folder and Jodie has a 360-appraisal process where her staff give her feedback on her own performance. Then we talked about Thriving Minds and Thrive Women. Thriving Minds was born out Jodie's own experiences. She wanted to empower employers to deal with mental ill health in the workplace. It offers various bespoke training. There is an associated Facebook group, a series of breakfast and an annual conference. This year's conference on 19th September will feature over 150 employers, will take place at Leeds Civic Hall and be opened by the mayor. Thrive is a networking group that meets quarterly. The group is open to men, providing those men empower women. Once again there is a Facebook group. The group only started in March this year but already has 200 members. She has been inspired by Lady Hale, President of the Supreme Court and a fellow Yorkshirewoman, and Baroness Mone, founder of Ultimo: she “came from nothing” and sold Ultimo for £39m. Other aspects of Jodie's self-care regime includes daily exercise: netball, yoga, weightlifting, or walking her dog. She also meditates using Headspace. She eats well, sleeps well and drinks plenty of water. She says “I understand what my triggers are and what helps me and doesn't help me.” One key ambition for Jodie is to be able to change the law in relation to mental health.

Stephen Sackur speaks to Lady Hale, President of the UK Supreme Court. The British legal system has long enjoyed an international reputation for independence, integrity and efficiency. But senior judges, lawyers and police officers are now voicing concern about a judicial system close to breaking point. Is one of the world’s most admired justice systems failing the people it is supposed to serve? Image: Lady Hale (Credit: UK Supreme Court/PA Wire)

On 7 March 2019 Lady Brenda Hale delivered the 2019 Cambridge Freshfields Lecture entitled "Principle and Pragmatism in developing Private Law". Lady Hale is the current President of the Supreme Court of the United Kingdom, and non-permanent judge of the Court of Final Appeal of Hong Kong. In the lecture, Lady Hale gave her perspective on whether the development of the law should be guided by doctrine, or policy. She did this through a reflection and analysis of a number cases, including many on which she had presided, including Patel v Mirza and Radmacher v Granatino. The Cambridge Freshfields Lecture is an annual address delivered by a guest of the Cambridge Private Law Centre (CPLC), and the event is sponsored by Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer.

Lady Brenda Hale has been announced as the new president of the UK Supreme Court - the first woman to hold the post. Lady Hale has a long track record as a female pioneer in the legal profession and has been critical of the lack of diversity within the judicial system. Born in Yorkshire, she was an outstanding student, passing the 11 plus exam a year early. She took a different route into the judiciary, having pursued a career as a legal academic first, rather than spend years working as a barrister. After becoming a part time judge while working for the Law Commission - the body which promotes law reform - she then went quickly through the ranks sitting in the Court of Appeal and then the House of Lords. She became the first female justice at the Supreme Court and then its first female deputy president - and will take on role of President in October. Mark Coles talks to friends, family and colleagues about about her distinguished career - and early love for Cliff Richard. Producer: Jordan Dunbar.

Lady Hale is a trailblazer. 30 years ago, she was the first woman to be appointed to the Law Commission (and the youngest person there); 10 years ago, she was the first female judge to be appointed to the Appellate Committee of the House of Lords (as Baroness Hale of Richmond) and there hasn't been another woman appointed since. Last year she was appointed as the Deputy President of the Supreme Court. Where she is still the only woman! Her judgments have changed family and equality law in this country; and despite her eminent role she remains outspoken about domestic violence, women in prison, and the rights of children. In Private Passions, she talks about her upbringing in Yorkshire, one of three daughters ? and about being in such a minority when she began to study law. Lady Hale chooses music which connects with her professional life: operas about crime, punishment and injustice (Beethoven's Fidelio and Britten's Billy Budd). She talks about how she'd like to change the law on divorce, and why she loves Mozart's The Marriage of Figaro. She discusses the conflict between reason and emotion in her work, and reveals that she is haunted by certain cases from the past. And she reflects on the way her judicial role has revealed the worst ? but also the best ? of human nature. Finally, during this season of exam stress, she reveals her revision tip: march up and down the room, reciting the textbook and listening to Strauss. Produced by Elizabeth Burke, for Loftus. First broadcast 11/05/2014.

Lady Hale is Deputy President of the Supreme Court. Her role makes her the most senior female judge in British legal history and she remains the first and only woman to sit on the UK's highest court. Educated in the state school system, she won a state scholarship to Cambridge. The first woman to be appointed to the Law Commission, she spent ten years re-defining the face of family law – an area she specialised in. She has been an outspoken critic of the lack of women and diversity in the judiciary, particularly at the highest levels.
