Rachel Reeves should exempt defence pledge from budget rules, says Gordon Brown

The former prime minister said the commitment to spend 5% of GDP on national security by 2035 should be dealt with jointly as a 'Nato initiative', with costs shared across Europe. Leading economists have warned the Chancellor will likely have to raise taxes in the autumn budget to plug a £51 billion black hole in the public finances. Ms Reeves is currently on track to miss one of her borrowing rules by £41.2 billion and needs to rebuild a fiscal buffer of nearly £10 billion that has been wiped out, the National Institute of Economic and Social Research (Niesr). Mr Brown, who served as chancellor for a decade in Sir Tony Blair's Labour administration, said on Thursday that the rise in defence spending should be treated as 'exceptional', as it has been in Germany. 'When you come to the fiscal position, look, there's one thing that's happened over the last few months that has been quite unprecedented – to spend 5% on defence expenditure as we want to spend by the 2030s,' he told BBC Radio 4's Today programme. 'But this is a Nato initiative, this is a European initiative. We should be doing this jointly. 'We should have either jointly issued bonds or a Nato defence fund, and we should be sharing the cost across the continent, and that should be regarded as something extraordinary and exceptional, outside the fiscal rules. 'That would create the kind of headroom that Rachel Reeves needs.' Germany has voted to exempt some defence spending from its self-imposed borrowing constraints as Nato allies seek to boost funding following pressure from US President Donald Trump for them to shoulder more of the burden of European defence. Mr Brown said: 'If you look around Europe at the moment, you see that the Germans are looking at what they can do outside the fiscal rules… the French are looking at ways of doing it, the Polish have already done that. 'What I'm actually asking for is a European-wide initiative. 'Let's do it jointly, either jointly issued bonds or individually issued bonds that are simultaneous and therefore seen by the markets as an extraordinary issue.' When she entered the Treasury, Ms Reeves set out two key fiscal rules: the first to ensure that day-to-day spending is matched by tax revenues, and the second to reduce net financial debt as a share of the economy. Ministers have already announced a cut to overseas aid to fund a boost in defence spending but economists have said the new Nato target of 5% by 2035 could increase expenditure by a further £38.6 billion. The Treasury has been contacted for comment.

France: Naf Naf partially acquired by Groupe Beaumanoir

Iconic 1990s womenswear brand Naf Naf, which was in receivership, has been partially acquired by Groupe Beaumanoir (Caroll, Bonobo, Cache Cache, Morgan, Sarenza, etc.). The acquisition was confirmed on Thursday in a court decision seen by AFP. Groupe Beaumanoir has proposed to retain around 300 of the brand's current 600 employees, according to the same document. The group will also take over 12 of the existing 102 shops, but will operate them under its own brands. Naf Naf was placed in receivership last May due to "cash flow difficulties", as noted by the Bobigny Commercial Court (Seine-Saint-Denis) in its decision. Of the five bidders, two had seriously positioned themselves to partially take over Naf Naf: the Amoniss group, owner of Pimkie; and Groupe Beaumanoir. Amoniss proposed to take over 185 employees and redeploy 26, according to the decision. On Thursday, the court rejected Amoniss' offer. This was due to Amoniss being "under a safeguard plan since October 2024". This presented a "financial fragility", while Groupe Beaumanoir enjoys a "solid financial situation". The court detailed this as "positive equity of 365 million euros" and "cash of 187 million euros". Specifically, Groupe Beaumanoir is taking over 55 employees and offering redeployment to 253 of them. The brand has been in difficulty for several years and has undergone three successive receiverships. In June 2024, after a previous receivership, Turkish buyer Migiboy Tekstil committed to saving 90 percent of jobs and keeping around one hundred shops. At the time, the company offered more than 1.5 million euros to take over the French brand. In doing so, the Turkish company saved 521 out of 586 jobs and around one hundred shops in France. It also took over the subsidiaries in Spain, Italy and Belgium. This article was translated to English using an AI tool.
