On Tuesday, a federal court blocked Texas from using its newly drawn congressional map in the 2026 midterms– a decision now in limbo as Republicans look to the Supreme Court for a potential reversal. Rep. Pat Fallon (R-TX) joins the Rundown to voice his disappointment with the ruling, denounce what he calls racially motivated gerrymandering allegations, and addresses the ongoing investigation into gunman Thomas Crooks, who attempted to assassinate President Trump at a rally. The rules are about to change for the millions of users who go on the popular gaming platform Roblox. They're introducing new age-restriction tools after lawsuits accused the platform of failing to protect children from online predators. Eliza Jacobs, Senior Director of Product Policy at Roblox, joins the Rundown to break down their new age verification system and why she believes it could become the industry standard for protecting children from online threats.

With the Employment Rights Bill nearing the end of its journey through Parliament, Laura Merrylees, senior legal editor at Brightmine, is joined by Nick Chronias, a partner at DAC Beachcroft, to discuss the Bill's many trade union-related changes and provide a phase-by-phase guide to how HR departments can prepare for their implementation. Read the transcript Related resources Employment Rights Bill: 10 key policies employers need to revamp On your radar: Employment Rights Bill updates and HR mythbusting Podcast: Employment Rights Bill - where we are now, what to expect next Webinar: Getting probationary periods right as Employment Rights Bill changes loom Key takeaways Phased rollout: Changes will begin two months after Royal Assent, with major reforms in April and October 2026, and final measures in 2027. Union ballots: Unions will be able to organise industrial action ballots more easily, with less information required and a reduced notice period (from 14 to 10 days). The rule requiring 50% turnout is still being debated. Union recognition: From April 2026, unions face lower hurdles for official recognition, including reduced membership and turnout thresholds. Workplace access: Starting in October 2026, unions will gain rights to access workplaces (physically and digitally), with strict timelines for employer responses and agreements. Informing staff: Employers must regularly inform employees of their right to join a union - new starters should get written statements, and existing staff receive annual reminders. Protections for union activity: Employees and union reps will be protected from penalties (other than pay deductions) for participating in official industrial action. Enforcement and consultations: Government consultations on these reforms are open until December 2025; breaches of access agreements may result in substantial fines (£75,000 per breach). Employer impact: All employers should update policies and prepare for shorter timelines, new communication duties and increased union engagement.

Seven-Lecture Series on Property Law Series Roadmaphttps://drive.google.com/file/d/1ceyxXw7KilPSTUMFf_Y8r6ktEzM_gm1Q/view?usp=sharingUnderstanding the Rule Against Perpetuities: A Legal OdysseyThis conversation delves into the complexities of the Rule Against Perpetuities (RAP), a fundamental concept in property law that restricts how long a property owner can dictate the future of their property. The discussion covers the historical context, the core components of RAP, common law traps, modern statutory reforms, and practical strategies for legal practitioners and students. The conversation emphasizes the importance of understanding both the traditional common law and modern reforms, including the implications of dynasty trusts and the evolving landscape of estate planning.Imagine a world where the past dictates the future, where decisions made centuries ago still hold sway over today's property rights. This is the realm of the Rule Against Perpetuities (RAP), a legal doctrine that has both haunted and fascinated law students and practitioners alike. At its core, RAP is about balancing the freedom of property owners with societal needs for marketability and utility.The Historical Context: The Rule Against Perpetuities emerged as a response to the "dead hand" control, where property owners could impose conditions that lasted indefinitely. This legal principle was designed to prevent land from being tied up by outdated stipulations, ensuring it remains a dynamic part of the economy.The Legal Mechanics: RAP is famously encapsulated in the phrase: "No interest is good unless it must vest, if at all, not later than 21 years after some life in being at the creation of the interest." This means that any future interest in property must become certain within a specific timeframe, or it becomes void. The rule's complexity lies in its hypothetical scenarios, such as the "fertile octogenarian" and "unborn widow," which challenge the imagination and legal reasoning.Modern Reforms and Implications: Over time, the rigidity of RAP has led to reforms like the Uniform Statutory Rule Against Perpetuities (USRAP), which introduces a 90-year vesting period. These changes reflect a shift towards practicality, allowing courts to "wait and see" if interests vest within this period. Additionally, the rise of dynasty trusts has transformed RAP into a tool for wealth preservation, enabling families to shield assets from taxes over extended periods.The Rule Against Perpetuities remains a cornerstone of property law, illustrating the tension between individual autonomy and societal progress. As legal landscapes evolve, RAP continues to challenge and inspire, prompting us to consider who truly holds the power over property—those living today or the echoes of the past.Subscribe now to stay updated on the latest legal insights and trends.TakeawaysThe Rule Against Perpetuities is a complex but essential concept in property law.Understanding the policy behind RAP is crucial for effective legal analysis.The common law's strict tests can lead to absurd results, such as the fertile octogenarian scenario.Modern reforms like the wait and see doctrine provide more practical solutions.Dynasty trusts exploit RAP to shield wealth from taxes over generations.Identifying interests subject to RAP is key to effective estate planning.Exemptions from RAP can save certain interests from being voided.Common law traps highlight the need for careful drafting in estate documents.Statutory reforms have softened the harshness of the common law rule.Preventive compliance through saving clauses is the gold standard for drafters.Rule Against Perpetuities, property law, estate planning, common law, statutory reforms, dynasty trusts, legal education, RAP analysis, estate planning strategies, legal traps

Policy headwinds are rising, but the work still needs doing. In this episode of the HRchat Podcast, host Bill Banham sits down with Pavel Shynkarenko, founder of Mellow, to unpack the ripple effects of proposed H-1B and L-1 visa reforms—and a possible 25% outsourcing levy—on the global freelance and contractor economy.Pavel has spent more than 20 years in financial and HR technology, building platforms that help freelancers access fair pay, benefits, and social protections on par with employees. He brings a pragmatic, data-informed view of how these policy changes could reshape the cost calculus for U.S. employers, HR leaders, and cross-border teams in 2025 and beyond.Together, Bill and Pavel explore how tightening U.S. visa policies could unintentionally accelerate the shift toward remote-first and distributed workforces. When companies face rising administrative costs or talent shortages at home, they often turn to Employer of Record (EOR) and Contractor of Record (COR) models to stay compliant while continuing to access top talent worldwide. Pavel walks through the hidden math behind total landed cost—how everything from currency fluctuations to social contributions can alter hiring decisions—and why the real bottleneck isn't policy, but supply: there simply aren't enough local workers to replace the global freelance engine that powers innovation.The conversation then turns to platform evolution. Legacy marketplaces once promised cheaper rates through mass competition, but that model no longer serves enterprise needs. Today, trust, verified track records, and long-term fit matter far more. Pavel explains how Mellow is redefining the space by using AI and behavioral data to connect companies with freelancers they're statistically more likely to succeed with—based on shared networks, past project outcomes, and verified credentials. This AI-first approach also simplifies complex backend tasks such as KYC, tax, and payments across 100+ countries, giving HR teams one compliance-ready platform to manage their distributed workforce.Bill and Pavel also compare U.S. protectionist trends with Europe's fragmented response. Some countries, especially those with aging populations and shrinking workforces, may loosen immigration for high-skill talent, while others tighten entry. The result? A global balancing act where companies must blend onshore, nearshore, and offshore strategiesSupport the showFeature Your Brand on the HRchat PodcastThe HRchat show has had 100,000s of downloads and is frequently listed as one of the most popular global podcasts for HR pros, Talent execs and leaders.

A long awaited Aged Care Act is coming into force, four years after a Royal Commission recommended major reforms to the sector. - Undang-Undang Perawatan Lansia yang telah lama dinantikan akhirnya berlaku.

Australia's long-awaited Aged Care Act came into effect on November 1, marking a major step in implementing the recommendations of the Royal Commission into Aged Care Safety and Quality released four years ago. The federal government says the reform will provide older Australians with more options and flexibility for in-home care, ensuring their rights and dignity are better protected. However, advocates and welfare groups warn that the new funding model — which replaces the existing Home Care Packages with the new Support at Home Program — could leave many seniors paying more out of pocket for basic support services such as cleaning, showering assistance, transport, and meal preparation.

PREVIEW: Argentina's Economic Reforms and Hesitation of Foreign Investors Guest: Mary Anastasia Grady Mary Anastasia Grady discusses Argentina, noting that despite successes including deregulation, tax cuts, and reduction of government size, foreign investment is not materializing. Investors remain on the sidelines due to concerns that the peso is overvalued and capital controls exist, creating uncertainty about when they can retrieve their money.

Send us a textA quiet surge in officer assaults is happening right under our noses, and most leaders aren't talking about it. We dig into the policies, the pressure, and the missed accountability that turned a wave of “reform” into a spike in risk—even as violent crime trends downward from its 2020 peak.Data matters more than slogans, so we walk through the numbers where mandated strict “last resort” policies saw significant increases in officer assault rates. Nationally, assaults hit record highs while many agencies doubled down on de-escalation training that still lacks rigorous scientific validation.If you care about officer safety, real accountability, and reforms that actually improve outcomes, this is your moment to lean in. Subscribe and share this episode with a colleague who needs to hear it.Join Our Tribe of Courageous Leaders: Get The BookGet Weekly Articles by Travis YatesJoin Us At Our WebsiteGet Our 'Courageous Leadership' TrainingJoin The Courageous Police Leadership Alliance
