Oh God, What Now?Enoch, Enoch, Who’s There? – Reform’s deranged repatriation plansThe ghost of Enoch Powell punches the air as Farage announces jaw-dropping plans for mass deportations and tearing up Indefinite Leave to Remain, claiming it will save Britain over £230bn (it won’t).

European Union Tariff News and TrackerUS Imposes 15% Tariffs on EU Goods, Signaling Ongoing Trade Tensions and Uncertainty for European BusinessesListeners, the big story in European Union tariff news this week is the 15% US tariff that now applies to about 70% of goods coming from the EU.

The current 15% rate is seen by EU negotiators as an improvement, particularly since cars now enter at 15% instead of nearly double...

Global Dispatches -- World News That MattersWill There Be a Coming Trade War?If Donald Trump actually follows through on many of his campaign promises to impose tariffs, it would thoroughly upend the rules-based system governing international trade. That system, which is partially embodied by the World Trade Organization, was once championed by the United States. However, over the years, U.S. presidents, including President Biden, have occasionally skirted its rules and processes. The incoming Trump administration, though, seems willing and eager to ignore it altogether. So, what does that mean for global trade? And could Trump's actions spark a trade war?
