This week, two of the world's biggest tech companies have found themselves in PR crises of their own making. Why did Apple's new iPad Pro 'crush' advert misfire so badly? Meanwhile at Baidu - China's biggest search engine - its PR boss has lost her job after videos of her promoting a toxic work culture went viral. David Yelland and Simon Lewis go to the heart of a secret and little understood reputational war and look at the real battle between the west coast of America and China's Silicon Valley. And - bowing out gracefully. How Nadhim Zahawi's exit strategy from politics ticked all the PR boxes.Producer: Eve Streeter Editor: Sarah Teasdale Executive Producer: William Miller Music by Eclectic Sounds A Raconteur production for BBC Radio 4

If you thought tax was boring, the latest New Money Review podcast will change your mind.Dan Neidle was a top corporate lawyer for 23 years—ending up as head of tax at London law firm Clifford Chance. But in 2022 he retired to set up a new think tank called Tax Policy Associates. Its aim is to improve UK tax policy and to improve the public understanding of the subject. This nerdish-sounding mission statement gave no indication of the political fireworks Neidle's new venture was shortly to ignite. In July 2022, he accused then-Chancellor Nadim Zahawi of having avoided £4m in capital gains tax a few years earlier. It later emerged that Zahawi was under investigation by his own subordinates in His Majesty's Revenue and Customs (HMRC), as well as being the subject of a separate inquiry the National Crime Agency (NCA).Other campaigners had tried to expose Zahawi in previous years but had been put off by threats of legal action—the UK's infamous ‘strategic lawsuits against public participation' (SLAPPs), which often silence investigative journalists.But when Neidle received similar threats from Zahawi's lawyers he called the UK Chancellor's bluff. He went ahead and published his investigations. Zahawi was forced to back down.In September 2022, incoming UK prime minister Liz Truss replaced Zahawi as Chancellor and gave him another ministerial position. But in January 2023, Rishi Sunak, who had replaced Truss in October, fired Zahawi from the UK government. Citing the tax investigation which Neidle had been instrumental in bringing to light, Sunak said Zahawi had committed ‘a serious breach of the Ministerial Code'.Tax Policy Associates' more recent investigations touch on such sensitive topics as UK inheritance tax, the ‘carried interest' tax exemption enjoyed by private equity firms and the alleged involvement of the family of another Conservative politician, Michelle Mone, in a cover-up relating to government contracts for personal protective equipment (PPE) during the coronavirus pandemic. In the half-hour podcast discussion, I quiz Dan Neidle on a number of tax-related topics, including:Separating the goals of tax policy from the tax rulesWhether the complexity of tax codes aids illicit behaviourWhy the make-up of UK tax revenues has changed remarkably little over timeWhy the Liz Truss tax-cutting experiment went wrongThree ideas to improve UK tax policy (value-added tax, income tax and land tax)PPE contract fraudFailures in the UK's system of corporate transparencyWhy Companies House is a giant fraud robotWhy the UK remains a spectacularly successful venue for money launderingCoordinating the taxation of multinationalsWhy we should encourage the OECD's ‘Pillar 2' project

In which Nick interviews Nadhim Zahawi's nemesis, Dan Neidle, founder of Tax Policy Associates. Dan has recently waded into the Post Office Horizon Scandal, and is pretty sure at least one compensation scheme for victims of the scandal is unfair. Dan is a great talker and entertaining company. He talks about his career as a tax layer, The Downfall of Zahawi, SLAPPs and of course the Post Office. In the podcast we promise plenty of links to aid your understanding and reading, but before we do... A CORRECTION. I say in the podcast the Overturned Historical Conviction Scheme was managed by the government. The Post Office have got in touch to tell me they are administering the OHCS.

Another day, another scandal in British politics... We explain why Prime Minister Rishi Sunak had to fire Nadhim Zahawi, one of his most high profile ministers. Zahawi's been forced to pay a massive tax settlement, a scandal in itself. But what settled his fate was the threats of legal action he made to journalists trying to investigate the story. On our panel this week are former tax inspector Ray McCann, plus political commentators Andre Walker and Ella Whelan.

It's the third anniversary of Brexit. Why is there such silence on its negative economic impact? Why no voices from Scotland or Northern Ireland in the media?To counteract this Time for Scotland will have a torchlit procession to the Scottish Parliament to keep the lights on for Scotland in the EU.There's still time to sign up for the rally tonight. Full details belowhttps://timeforscotland.scot/We examine those economic hits to the UK and Scottish economy and why it's so important to keep on saying we didn't want or vote for Brexit. We also look at the Zahawi affair and what it says about the Tory Party as a narrative begins to shape that this, and other ethical scandals are simply all hangovers from the Boris Johnson era not emblematic of the current Tory administration.The Tories are also hoping that, despite the most recent opinion polls, Sunak will be able to pull off a John Major 1992 great escape. But is this more like 1997?As the Conservatives prepare the bonfire of EU legislation, they seem very keen to stress the European nature of their new Minimum Service trade union legislation. Does this stand up to any detailed scrutiny?We also try and resolve the great Scotch Bonnet, mushroom or chili pepper controversy ★ Support this podcast ★

Zahawi's gone so that only leaves Rishi Sunak having to make decisive decisions about well, pretty much the entire Conservative Party. Dominic Raab seems to have taken up bullying as a full time job, Jeremy Hunt keeps talking about E's which explains his beady little mad eyes and Boris Johnson really wants people to like him again.

Mihir Bose – former BBC Sports Editor, David Smith – Economics Editor of the Sunday Times and political commentator Nigel Dudley discuss the hot topic- Nadhim Zahawi's tax affairsThey thought he should jump, and apologise for embarrassing the Prime Minister, but as it turned out he was pushed, a couple of days after they recorded the podcast.They talk about the way he tried to turn the story around, attacking the media for concerning themselves with his ‘private; affairs, and whether it makes a difference that our top politicians at the moment are so rich.Get in contact with the podcast by emailing threeoldhacks@outlook.com, we'd love to hear from you!

Nadhim Zahawi is sacked as Conservative party chairman after an inquiry finds he failed to disclose an investigation into his tax affairs. Also: Israel to speed up gun applications after attacks, and the guitarist Tom Verlaine dies aged 73.

This week James and Toby discuss how different the last three years would have been if James, and not Chris Whitty, had been the Chief Medical Officer and the fact that during the pandemic it seems Toby was spied upon by the 77th Brigade, a unit of the British Army, as revealed in a new report from Big Brother Watch. In other news we cover the tax affairs of the now ex-Chairman of the Conservative Party Nadhim Zahawi (MP for Stratford-on-Avon) and the iniquity of the forthcoming teachers' strike. In Culture Corner, James gives a thumbs up to Season 4 of Fauda (Netflix), Kleo (Netflix), Sharpe's Siege and The Way We Live Now.

The problem of Nadhim Zahawi may not have gone away as quickly as the Prime Minister might have hoped. Today, allies of the former Tory Chairman have suggested the decision to sack Zahawi has been 'rushed' and 'unfair'. Is there more of this story to come? Natasha Feroze speaks to Fraser Nelson and Katy Balls. 

Nadhim Zahawi was unceremoniously but entirely predictably sacked at the weekend – what will be the Tory fallout? We forecast the sleaze as the Government continues to fight fires on all fronts. Plus we look at the widespread strikes and the latest from Ukraine. Ros Taylor is joined by Arthur Snell to outline the days ahead. “Zahawi projected the image of someone who isn't in touch with normal people who doesn't feel much shame about his actions.” – Arthur Snell “Sunak is surrounded by a pretty ramshackle gang, he's never going to be able to present being an ethical group of people – because those people are not available.” – Arthur Snell  “The new ethics advisor seems to be very good at his job which is worrying for Tory members.” – Arthur Snell “When you have a conversation where the witnesses are only Vladimir Putin and Boris Johnson, the chances of an accurate account are quite limited.” – Arthur Snell  Support us on Patreon: www.patreon.com/bunkercast  Presented by Ros Taylor with Arthur Snell.

Andrew Bailey, the Governor of the Bank of England, believes that flexibility is the most important feature of monetary policy going forward. The Monetary Policy Committee is due to announce the latest change in short term interest rates on Thursday following its meeting this week. While observers expect there to be a further hike of fifty basis points, they also expect the end to the current cycle of hikes to end quite soon, possibly by the end of the currency quarter. Bailey is on record as saying that he doesn't expect rates to begin to fall until the fourth quarter, but he has commented recently that he believes that the Bank needs to be more flexible on policy and look at ways in which the level of demand can be altered in the short term. Having begun a programme of interest rates rises over a year ago when they were at historic lows, they have taken an inordinate amount of time to reach a level where they are beginning to restrict activity. In the Governor's opinion, this is far too long a time while inflation was rising exponentially. One answer would have been to increase the increments of the increase, but there was concern that given the precarious state of the economy at the time, that it could easily have led to a deeply damaging recession.

They question whether a blind eye is being turned on criminal activity in parliament and the level of corruption within the Conservative Party – are serious changes to the vetting process urgently needed?The panel talks through Sajid Javid's calls for patients to pay for GP appointments and A&E visits. They look at the US paid-for healthcare system, which sees patients wanting to leave the hospital as soon as possible as they cannot afford the fees, and speculate the different avenues of how a paid system could work in the UK.All this and much more debated on this week's episode!—------------------'I Hit The Nail Right On The Head' by Billy Bremner. © Fridens liljor/Micke Finell.Rock around the clock productions AB.www.rockaroundtheclock.coCreated & produced by Podcast Partners: www.podcastpartners.comSign up to receive updates by email when a new episode drops at www.wrightonthenail.FMThis podcast is published by New Thinking: www.newthinking.com Explore New Thinking podcasts via our website: www.newthinking.com/podcasts

I go through these violations of the law and touch on some more conservative MPs who have a complex relationship with the rules Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

The prime minister has asked his independent ethics adviser to investigate Nadhim Zahawi, the Conservative Party chairman. Sir Laurie Magnus will look at whether Mr Zahawi breached the ministerial code by settling tax issues with HMRC while he was chancellor. Mr Zahawi says it was “careless and not deliberate” error. That's on top of the two investigations around the appointment of Richard Sharp, the BBC chairman, after reports he helped Boris Johnson, the former prime minister, secure a loan worth up to £800,000.One is by the commissioner for public appointments and will look at the process that led to Mr Sharp getting the job. He has also asked the BBC to review any potential conflicts of interest he might have. The investigations came after Rishi Sunak was fined for not wearing a seatbelt.On the Sky News Daily, Niall Paterson talks to Sky News' chief political correspondent Jon Craig about the latest developments.

What on earth is going on here? There are allegations that Tory Chair Nadhim Zahawi has been forced to pay millions to HMRC, after allegedly not paying tax by using an offshore trust when he sold off his company. We don't know the truth because Zahawi hasn't answered the questions properly - and there isn't enough media pressure. But this sums up a society where it's one rule for the top - and one rule for everyone else.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/the-owen-jones-podcast. Hosted on Acast.

The podcast returns to find that, well, nothing has really changed. The NHS is in serious trouble, public sector workers are still having to strike and cost of living is still silly. Luckily Rishi Sunak's government are doing a resounding nothing about it, and generally hoping it'll all be fixed by them ignoring it and assuming it'll eventually go away. Zahawi's avoided millions, Starmer's self-diagnosis and a chat with Dr Julia Grace Patterson (@JuJuliaGrace) at Every Doctor (@EveryDoctorUK) on the NHS Crisis.

Unions have condemned Tory Chair Nadhim Zahawi for saying Vladimir Putin wants strikes in the UK. And train companies have made an offer to the RMT ahead of planned walk outs.

The government could use the army to help ease the disruptions caused by possible public sector strikes, Conservative Party Chairman Nadhim Zahawi told Sky's Sophy Ridge. Sophy is joined by Sebastian Payne, Whitehall Editor at the Financial Times, to analyse Zahawi's comments. Also, Sophy and Sebastian discuss German ambassador to the UK Miguel Berger's suggestion that Germany does not see a fundamental change in the Russian position amid the war in Ukraine.

Nadim Zahawi was appointed Chancellor by Boris Johnson in July as his cabinet fell apart, and who is likely to be dismissed from the position by Liz Truss next week.

The first vote in the process to elect a new leader of the Conservative took place yesterday, and it meant the end of the road for the campaigns of current Chancellor of the Exchequer, Nadhim Zahawi, and the runner to Boris Johnson in 2019, Jeremy Hunt. Hunt immediately backed yesterday's winner Rishi Sunak while Zahawi said he wanted his supporters to make up their own minds. Sunak polled the most votes, 88. He was followed by the three female candidates, with Penny Morduant second. Sunak's support within the Parliamentary Party looks to be sufficiently solid, for him to be one of the two candidates who will proceed to the vote by Party members. The other spot in the national vote looks to w be a straight fight between Morduant and Foreign Secretary Liz Truss.

The first ballot of the Tory leadership contest is now over, with Jeremy Hunt and Nadhim Zahawi knocked out as they weren't able to meet the 30 votes required in this round (on 18 votes, Hunt actually lost two supporters from yesterday's nomination round). The question of who their supporters fold in behind next is the biggest for the next 24 hours. On the podcast, Cindy Yu talks to James Forsyth and Katy Balls about the big night ahead for the remaining six leadership contenders, as well as the battle for the right of the party between Liz Truss, Kemi Badenoch and Suella Braverman.

In this episode of UK Property Talk: UK property prices still rising despite global economic slowdown. Rightmove, the online property listing portal, confirms its compliance with new listing guidelines to include more information on each property. Rightmove portal details for properties will include:- Cost of any service charge and ground rent. Details of any shared ownership arrangement.  Sale price - no longer “POA”. Other changes that affect sales and lettings, including council tax bands. Any information missing from a listing will be highlighted and potential buyers will be redirected to the agent. Rightmove has also introduced new ‘tool tips' and a glossary of terms. Other Updates New Rules on unfair Leases and Ground rents Boris announces plans to sell off Housing Association properties. Lifelong mortgages. UK government's ‘levelling up' measures will involve letting agents directly include a national landlord register, a 'decent homes standard' and abolishing Section 21. By 2030, more renters will have a secure path to ownership with the number of first-time buyers increasing in all areas; and the government's ambition is for the number of non-decent rented homes to have fallen by 50%, with the biggest improvements in the lowest-performing areas. UK House Prices Continue To Rise Despite Global Economic Slowdown House prices hit a new high in June despite the rising cost of living in the UK would slow demand. Average house price reached £294,845 in June after rising by 1.8% - the steepest monthly increase since 2007. Halifax sighted a “lack of available homes” for sale was lifting prices as well as a shift towards people buying larger, detached homes, which rose by over 13% in the last year.

A Conservative leadership contest will take place in coming weeks after British Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced Thursday he is resigning as the party's leader — though he will continue to serve as prime minister until a successor is elected by party members.The attorney general of England, Suella Braverman, and lawmaker Tom Tugendhat have publicly announced they would seek the position. A look at the candidates who could succeed Johnson as party leader and prime minister:Tom Tugendhat, Commons Foreign Affairs Committee ChairIn announcing he would seek the Conservative party leadership, Tugendhat, a 48-year-old lawmaker and former soldier, wrote in the Daily Telegraph he is consulting a “broad coalition” of colleagues to bridge the divides in government.“I have served before – in the military, and now in Parliament. Now I hope to answer the call once again as prime minister. It's time for a clean start,” he wrote.Tugendhat has no ministerial experience, and is reportedly is favored by some in the party as a good choice for a new start.An opponent of the 2016 Brexit referendum, Tugendhat has been a trenchant Johnson critic. He is also among a group of key Conservatives urging the U.K. to take a tougher stand on China.Suella Braverman, Attorney GeneralBraverman, a lawmaker and barrister who became England's attorney general in 2020, was the first to publicly announce she would seek to become the leader of Britain's Conservatives.The 42-year-old told a television interviewer Wednesday she wanted to run for prime minister because she and her family, who arrived in Britain as immigrants, “owe a debt of gratitude to this country.”Braverman is not well known among the public. Her announcement, made while she still served in Johnson's government, surprised many.Braverman was a supporter of Johnson for years but said it was time for him to go.A euroskeptic and Brexiteer, Braverman was elected to Parliament in 2015. Johnson appointed her as attorney general in February 2020.Rishi Sunak, former Treasury ChiefSunak, the best-known of the Conservatives' potential leadership contenders, quit the government Tuesday. In a damning resignation letter, he wrote, “The public rightly expect government to be conducted properly, competently and seriously.""I believe these standards are worth fighting for and that is why I am resigning,” he said.Sunak was, for a time, widely regarded as the party's brightest rising star and the bookmakers' favorite to succeed Johnson.Sunak, 42, became Treasury chief in 2020, given the unenviable job of steering the slumping economy through the coronavirus pandemic. His policies, including dishing out billions of pounds to help businesses and workers, were generally well-received.But “partygate” changed those fortunes. Like Johnson, Sunak was fined by police for attending a lockdown-flouting birthday party at Downing Street in June 2020. He has also come under heavy criticism for being slow to respond to Britain's severe cost-of-living crisis.Sunak also faced pressure following revelations that his wife, Akshata Murthy, avoided paying taxes on her overseas income, and that the former investment banker held on to his U.S. green card while serving in government.Born to Indian parents who moved to Britain from East Africa, Sunak attended the exclusive Winchester College private school and studied at Oxford. Some see his elite education and work for the investment bank Goldman Sachs and a hedge fund as a liability because it makes him seem out of touch with ordinary voters.Nadhim Zahawi, Treasury ChiefJohnson appointed Zahawi, 55, to head the Treasury after Sunak's resignation Tuesday. Barely two days later, Zahawi joined the public calls for Johnson to quit.Zahawi came to prominence as vaccine minister during the pandemic.

House prices hit a new high in June, according to Halifax, despite expectations the rising cost of living in the UK would slow demand. The UK's biggest mortgage lender said the average house price reached £294,845 in June after rising by 1.8% - the steepest monthly increase since 2007. Halifax sighted a “lack of available homes” for sale was lifting prices as well as a shift towards people buying larger, detached homes, which rose by over 13% in the last year. But it expects price growth will slow, as interest rates rise and soaring prices hits people's pocket harder this year. Petrol remains high and average household energy bills are set to exceed £3000 this year – a rise of nearly 300%! Northern Ireland saw the largest rise in house prices, with an increase of 15.2% in the year to June to take the average to £187,833. Wales also recorded sharp growth of 14.3% to £219,281. The average house price in Scotland also hit a new record, rising 9.9% over the year to £201,549, "breaking through £200,000 for the first time in history" said Halifax. Interest rates will rise again says Bank of England Chief Economist, as inflation is expected to reach 11% this year. The Bank of England has warned of more interest rate rises as it vows to bring inflation back down to 2% - roughly 5 times lower than present level. The central bank's focus was getting prices down and making life more affordable again, its chief economist Huw Pill said in a speech on Wednesday. The weaker pound is making imports more expensive. Boris Johnson ousted as leader by his own party, but does it matter to you? After Chancellor Rishi Sunak walked out of his job this week, his replacement Nadhim Zahawi has said he and Prime Minister Boris Johnson want to "rebuild the economy" and get soaring inflation under control. We could see a new approach, as Mr Zahawi said "nothing is off the table" in terms of cutting taxes and boosting economic growth. There is a raft of legislation going through parliament including plans to ‘level up' and improve property and tenant rights.

Pensions Scandal – hundreds of thousands of women underpaid by DWP More people - mostly women - have been underpaid their state pension than previously thought, latest government figures show. A new estimate suggests 237,000 state pensioners were paid less than their entitlement, with a total of nearly £1.5bn underpaid. That is 105,000 more people affected than the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) calculated a year ago. They include widows and divorcees who could have been underpaid for years.

Britain's coronavirus vaccine program will operate around the clock seven days a week “as soon as we can,” Prime Minister Boris Johnson pledged Wednesday as the U.K. accelerates efforts to inoculate millions of its most vulnerable people against coronavirus.Johnson said “at the moment, the limit is on supply” of the vaccines rather than on the ability of the country's health service to deliver jabs quickly. The push to inoculate millions quickly comes as a more contagious variant of COVID-19 is sweeping across Britain and driving hospitals to their breaking points.His comments came as the government said 1,564 more people had died within 28 days of testing positive, the highest figure reported in Britain on a single day since the pandemic began. Britain already had Europe's highest COVID-19 death toll.The U.K. is under an indefinite national lockdown to curb the spread of the new variant, with nonessential shops, gyms and hairdressers closed, most people working from home and schools largely offering remote learning. But some are calling for even tougher measures.Scotland's leader, First Minister Nicola Sturgeon, tightened restrictions Wednesday, barring the consumption of alcohol outdoors and barring the public from going inside businesses to collect takeaway orders.The U.K. government has set a goal of delivering the first vaccine dose to everyone over age 70, as well as frontline health care workers, nursing home residents and anyone whose health makes them especially vulnerable to the virus, by the middle of February. That's more than 15 million people.Vaccinations will be given at hundreds of doctors' offices and community pharmacies, 50 mass vaccination sites at convention centers and sports stadiums, as well as at 223 hospitals.Britain is already using the COVID-19 vaccines from Pfizer-BioNTech and Oxford-AstraZeneca and has approved one made by Moderna, but that one is not expected to be delivered until spring.The pace of the country's vaccination drive remains a constant source of discussion.Johnson's comments came as his vaccines minister, Nadhim Zahawi, testified before a parliamentary committee that the government now had “line of sight” of deliveries to the end of February but sidestepped questions about week-by-week vaccine deliveries.“In any manufacturing process, especially one where you're dealing with a biological compound, a novel vaccine, is lumpy at the outset,” he told the Commons Science and Technology Committee. “There's no doubt that it was, but getting better. ...

Greater daily volumes of inoculations could be achieved if specific groups weren't targeted, he said.In a reflection of the frantic demand, Mene Pangalos, executive vice president of biopharmaceuticals research and development at AstraZeneca, asked the committee to help gain permission for people working in the vaccine process to get priority for the COVID-19 shots.“One of the things that I'm worried about is actually maintaining a continuous supply and work on this vaccine,” he said as he appealed for workers to be immunized. “If you have an outbreak at one of the centers — which we've had actually — or in one of the groups in Oxford working on new variants, or the people that are working on the regulatory files, everything stops.''The government is desperately trying to protect people with vaccines before hospitals are overwhelmed with cases of the new, more infections virus variant.Johnson said “the risk is very substantial” of intensive care capacity being outstripped. He said hospitals in England were treating about 32,000 COVID-19 patients, about 70% more than during the first peak in April.He said there are “some early signs” that recent lockdown measures were reducing transmission of th...
