2025-03-04 Tariffs: Canada and Mexico
My Lords, the imposition of tariffs can have effects beyond trade. For example, this morning the New York Times reported that the Chinese foreign ministry is considering relaxing its co-operation with America on the import of the products necessary to ma

2024-02-05 Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Bill
I hope that results. I am grateful to the noble Baroness, Lady Young, for her intervention. Of course, she is right: people contribute to charities because they care deeply about the charity’s mission. Although, as she said, there is no transactional el
