  • Attorney General v Buray [2025] UKPC 22, Cay
    May 28 2025

    This week, a question about the boundaries of judicial review: should a court engage in hypothetical review of a statute even if no one can demonstrate injury? What is the function of a declaration of incompatibility? The case might be about hypotheticals, but the fun of analysing it is real!

  • Methanex Trinidad (Titan) Unltd v Inland Revenue [2025] UKPC 20, T&T⁠
    May 19 2025

    This week, it’s question of tax law from Trinidad & Tobago! What does it mean to be an ‘artificial’ or ‘fictitious’ transaction? Plus, my usual grumbling about how slow some tax cases are to make it to the Board.

  • Galea v Assessment Review Cmte [2025] UKPC 17, Mrc
    Apr 14 2025

    This week, we examine a case concerning what counts as a business for tax purposes. Is a business hopelessly doomed to losses and no realistic path to profit still carried on 'with a view to a profit'?
