Very interesting to talk trade on @rteradio1.bsky.social Drivetime tonight — especially with the threat of 50% Trump tariffs on EU imports from June 1. I'd rather be an economist and comment than be a policymaker most weeks! But especially this week! @ucddublin.bsky.social

To round out the day, I made it on the BBC (NI ed)! Asked about the impact of the Trump tariffs 2.0 on Irish dairy and drinks producers. They will feel the impact most. Labor-intensive sectors with no tariff safeguarding and ready American substitutes. www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/epis... (iPlayer only)
