33| Irish Election Fallout, Regulating Rents, Trump’s Tariffs
from Next Round
With the dust settling after Ireland’s 2024 general election, we unpack its fractured results and the intricate coalition negotiations now underway as Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael navigate options against the backdrop of pressing challenges like housing, healthcare, and climate action. We also spotlight the 20th anniversary of the Residential Tenancies Board, exploring the regulators' role in the context of soaring rents, newly designated Rent Pressure Zones and its role in Ireland’s rental market. Lastly, we turn to President-elect Trump’s proposed tariffs on Canada, Mexico, and China, analysing historical lessons and the potential ripple effects on global trade, U.S. businesses and consumer costs. Will they damage Ireland’s prospects?
