==Retirement dispute==
In January 2009 it was revealed that Brunel had reneged on an agreement to let him stay until 2010. Instead, he was forcibly retired in late 2008, just after the census date for publications submitted to the [[Research Assessment Exercise]] had passed. Kuper responded by suing the university for breach of contract.<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://www.timeshighereducation.co.uk/story.asp?sectioncode=26&storycode=405176|title=Professor sues Brunel as 'promised' post is scrapped|date=2009-01-29|work=Times Higher Education (THE)|access-date=2017-11-14|language=en}}</ref> In 2011, employment laws were changed to permit phased retirements past the age of 65. This was because of changes to the 2006 Employment (Age) Regulations making mandatory retirement imposed by the employer unlawful.
