Amazon informed employees of a new round of global layoffs in an email apparently sent in error. A draft email written by Colleen Aubrey, a senior vice president at Amazon Web Services (AWS), was included as part of a calendar invitation sent by an executive assistant to a number of Amazon workers late on Tuesday. In the email, Aubrey refers to a swathe of employees in the U.S., Canada and Costa Rica having been laid off as part of an effort to "strengthen the company." An Amazon spokesperson declined to comment.

A survey by online jobs portal Adzuna has found that UK vacancies fell from 745,448 in November to 716,791 last month, a 15% reduction compared with a year earlier, and the weakest full year since 2020. "Competition for roles intensified and hiring slowed across many of the UK's largest sectors as the usual year-end uplift failed to materialise," said Adzuna co-founder Andrew Hunter, who nevertheless observed early indications of a recovery in graduate and entry-level posts.

A University of Southern California study has found that while 98% of teens attend schools with cellphone restrictions and most support the rules, students still use their phones for an average of 1.5 hours during the school day. Despite bans, two-thirds of students at schools with full restrictions still use phones in class, often with minimal consequences, and most report little impact on academic performance or social dynamics. Other typical consequences include confiscating the phone for the remainder of the class or the entire day, contacting parents, assigning detention, or requiring a parent to retrieve the device.

National Taxpayer Advocate Erin Collins has warned that the upcoming tax season will present greater challenges for taxpayers due to significant staffing reductions and complex tax law changes. In her annual report to Congress, Ms. Collins noted that the IRS's workforce decreased by 27% from 102,000 to 74,000 employees, impacting taxpayer services. "Entering 2026, the landscape is markedly different," Ms. Collins stated, highlighting the simultaneous challenges of reduced staff and the implementation of new tax laws from the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. While most taxpayers are expected to receive refunds on time, those needing extra assistance may face difficulties, especially as the IRS phases out paper checks. The report emphasizes the need for improved taxpayer service and efficient processing to avoid delays and confusion during the filing season.

The Scottish Child Abuse Inquiry has concluded that pupils at Fettes College were exposed to sexual, physical and emotional abuse at the boarding school from the 1950s onwards, with female pupils treated as "second-class citizens" after the school began taking female day pupils in 1972 and went fully co-educational in 1983, while racism was "normalised into the 1990s". The inquiry's chair, Lady Smith, said children "were wholly failed by the school", and that had "complaints been listened to and acted upon at the outset, many children would have been saved from abuse". Fettes' chair, Lady Wise, issued an unreserved apology, praising the bravery of those who gave evidence to the inquiry. Thompsons Solicitors, representing several Fettes College abuse victims, recently settled a case against the school for £450,000. It criticised the school for past negligence, saying its acknowledgment of failings "doesn’t go far enough."

Several Democratic-led states are advancing legislation to allow individuals to sue federal agents in state courts for civil rights violations. Illinois has already enacted such a law, which quickly prompted a lawsuit from the Trump administration claiming it violated the U.S. Constitution's "Supremacy Clause" that makes federal laws supersede conflicting state laws. The proposed laws aim to hold agents accountable in court when they act outside the scope of their duties, and allow citizens to seek damages for constitutional rights violations. Arlington, Virginia-based lawyer Anya Bidwell, who brings civil rights claims on behalf of clients against law enforcement, described the proposed state measures as "a potential sea change" in the American legal system.

A court in the Netherlands has ruled that binding greenhouse gas emissions targets to reach net zero by 2050 must be set by the government to protect the Dutch-Caribbean island of Bonaire, and has ordered the state to develop a proper climate adaptation plan for the island. “This is an incredible victory for the people in Bonaire,” said Eefje de Kroon, a climate justice expert at Greenpeace Nederlands. “Not only has the court established that people from Bonaire are being discriminated against because of the climate crisis but also the Dutch government needs to do much more to protect them.” The court ruled that the Dutch government was breaching articles 8 and 14 of the European convention on human rights, which protect the right to respect for private and family life and prohibit discrimination.

Wells Fargo Wealth & Investment Management, which oversees $2.5tn in client assets, has launched a proprietary proxy voting platform to manage voting internally where it holds discretion and authority. The move aims to reduce reliance on third-party proxy advisors like ISS and Glass Lewis, whose influence has drawn political backlash over their support for ESG and DEI shareholder proposals. Wells Fargo said the in-house system will increase independence and better reflect clients’ long-term financial interests. The shift follows similar action by JPMorgan and comes amid heightened regulatory and political scrutiny of proxy advisory firms, including an executive order from President Donald Trump and investigations from multiple states.
