These tariffs were 15 per cent on most products – with important exclusions such as pharma. Trump’s new 15 per cent global tariff – based on a 1974 Act that allows them to stay in place for 150 days – is due to come into place on Tuesday. Pharma is one of a small number of sectors excluded from the new global tariffs. But the exclusion of pharma from the new global tariffs shows the sensitivity about drug prices in the US. Some will favour a strong reaction if the new US tariffs go beyond what was agreed with the EU.

For this week's column, simply continue reading...‌Dear Lala,‌It has finally occurred to me that my partner of nine years has narcissistic tendencies. (My father is a narcissist and I've learnt to keep my emotions in). My friends have told me he's a narcissist, but I've always managed to convince myself otherwise. I'm still trying to come to terms with my epiphany, I don't want to be walking on eggshells for the rest of my life. Seeing her mum walk on egg-shells teaches her a lot about what to expect from relationships.

But with one contribution, Rio Ngumoha effectively changed the course of this game – and perhaps Liverpool’s season. And the clamour for the 17-year-old to be handed a first Premier League start will now surely reach an almost deafening volume. ‌True, Nottingham Forest’s weary legs, particularly in the full-back positions, meant they were ripe for Rio Ngumoha to capitalise upon when thrown into the fray 17 minutes from the end of normal time. ‌Arne Slot has been wise not to over-expose Ngumoha given the travails of much of Liverpool’s season. ‌Konate different classIf ever there was an afternoon for Liverpool to have addressed their propensity for starting slowly in Premier League games this season, it was here.

Dean and Marisa Lane in their new home in Kildare, which they bought with the aid of the First Home Scheme. “I appreciate 5,000 in the overall scheme of housing is small enough, but for those 5,000 individuals and families it’s important for them,” he said. [ Two-thirds of First Home Scheme applicants also availing of Help-to-Buy arrangement ]However, he said the supply of new housing stock was “undoubtedly” affecting the number of first-time buyers availing of the support. About two-thirds of all scheme applicants have used it in combination with the Help-to-Buy scheme, which gives buyers tax rebates of up to €30,000. I honestly don’t know, but for the foreseeable future I think there is a need.”Under the First Homes Scheme a joint application is counted as one buyer, not two.

The Naval Service, however, in recent years has seen its capacity to operate reduced markedly, largely due to personnel shortages, especially in key technical grades. The Naval Service, for example, had limited sonar capabilities to detect activity beneath the seas. In today’s world, the role of the Naval Service is evolving quickly, while the Government is seeking to resolve the recruitment and retention crisis. “If one of those tankers that are not seaworthy should have an accident, the implications more broadly for our seas is absolutely colossal.”But the capacity of the Naval Service is limited. The Minister, on the other hand, is likely to maintain that a separate regeneration plan for the Naval Service, which is due shortly, “will set out a pathway for its future direction”.

QuestionI’m in my late 50s, living in Dún Laoghaire and starting to think about retirement in a few years’ time. I’d like to keep my mind active and learn something new, but without taking on anything too formal or time-consuming. One of the most accessible ways of re-engaging with learning, without making a major commitment, is through evening courses. While the college is well known for its full-time programmes, it has also developed a substantial night school that reflects how adult learning works in practice. For those unsure where to begin, national platforms such as nightcourses.com provide a useful overview of what is available, listing thousands of evenings and adult education options across Dublin and nationwide.

Photograph: Cyril ByrneThousands of Irish travellers will be scanned by live facial recognition technology this week as part of UK immigration enforcement efforts at Holyhead port. Live facial recognition allows authorities to scan faces and compare them against databases in real time to identify offenders or other people of interest. Human rights groups warn that the rapid adoption of facial recognition technology could enable widespread surveillance and discrimination. Dr Elizabeth Farries, of University College Dublin’s Centre for Digital Policy, said there are “established problems” with live facial recognition technology. Live facial recognition technology captures digital images as people move through a designated “Zone of Recognition”.

Some, including the UK and Australia, had 10 per cent tariff rates under the former rules, while many countries in Asia had higher rates. “From the perspective of most Asian economies, the events of the last few days will lower the effective US tariff rate, at least in the short run,” noted analysts at Goldman Sachs. “China will enjoy the largest decline, 6.6pp by our estimate, followed by several South and Southeast Asian economies.”Euro Stoxx 50 futures and Dax futures both eased 0.5 per cent, while FTSE futures fell 0.2 per cent. The dollar shed 0.4 per cent on the Japanese yen to 154.40, while the euro added 0.3 per cent to $1.1821. Brent fell 1.3 per cent to $70.84 a barrel, while US crude lost 1.3 per cent to $65.61 per barrel.

The rate at which online meetings are being recorded is rising faster than you might imagine. Photograph: Getty ImagesThere was a time, about six months ago by my count, when you could join an online meeting at work without having to wonder if it was being recorded or not. Perhaps because the rate at which online meetings are being recorded is rising faster than you might imagine. Data from Roam, a US company that makes virtual office software for remote and hybrid workforces, shows that in January, an average 22 per cent of its users’ online calls were recorded. I realise the dubious standards of many work meetings make these gains questionable, but they nonetheless exist.

Prof Eugenio Biagini believes the teaching of Irish history offers Cambridge students valuable insight into Ireland. Taoiseach Micheál Martin in the Wren Library, Trinity College, Cambridge, to mark the appointment of Prof Alvin Jackson to the first Childers Professor of Modern Irish History Cambridge University. Because of our history, Irish historians must “engage with” Britain in a way that British historians do not have to match. The idea of a chair of British History at an Irish university, he says, “seems to me an incredibly old-fashioned way of addressing [it]. Why not a chair of French history, of Italian history, of German history?

But, as an undocumented migrant, the 50-year-old former graphic designer has been unable to secure regular employment and life has been tough for him in Madrid. “It’s an enormous opportunity for a lot of people.”The plan has created a stir in Spain’s political arena and underlines the country’s status as an outlier in Europe on the immigration issue. Most of the country’s undocumented migrants are believed to be Latin American, with Colombia, Peru and Honduras providing the largest numbers. The Sánchez government’s relatively welcoming policy contrasts with the clampdown on immigration most of Spain’s neighbours have been implementing in recent years. “Concerns about immigration in Spain have increased recently,” says Paco Camas, head of public opinion in Spain for polling firm Ipsos.
