World Bank predicts worst decade for global growth since 60s
The global economy will see the slowest decade for global growth since the 1960s as the effect of Donald Trump's tariffs are felt, the World Bank has two thirds of countries in the world had their growth forecasts cut from the bank's last set of predictions six months bank predicts global growth of only 2.3% in 2025, which is 0.4% lower than was forecast in January, and for 2027, it predicts growth of 2.6%Japan, Europe and the US were among those downgraded in the bank's twice yearly report. The bank's last set of forecasts in January were made before Donald Trump took then, his introduction of a universal 10% tariff on all imports into the US, as well as higher tariffs on steel and aluminium, caused financial markets to plunge in early April.A trade ruling found the bulk of his global tariffs to be illegal in May, although the Trump administration won an appeal to keep them in place for World Bank downgraded its growth forecast for the US in both 2025 and 2026, because of escalating trade tensions rattling investor confidence as well as private it not downgrade the US's main rival, China, which the bank said had enough financial stability to weather the "significant headwinds" from global political uncertainty."Against the backdrop of heightened policy uncertainty and increased trade barriers, the global economic context has become more challenging," the report said, adding that more "sentiment-sapping policy uncertainty" would come because of the potential for "further rapid shifts" in trade-restrictive moves by bank said there would be further cuts in growth if the US increased tariffs, and warned of rising could lead to "global trade seizing up in the second half of this year, accompanied by a widespread collapse in confidence, surging uncertainty and turmoil in financial markets," the report it stopped short of predicting a global recession, saying the chances of that were less than 10%.The report comes after the OECD also downgraded its outlook for the world economy.

Retired civil servants and ministers to have pension deductions checked
Around 13,000 current and former civil servants and ministers are to have their pension deductions assessed for possible anomalies, Public Expenditure Minister Jack Chambers said. Mr Chambers said that serious and systemic operational issues in the National Shared Services Office (NSSO) were brought to his attention in late March, after which further issues were found. Advertisement Because of administrative errors in the NSSO, members of the current Government, some members of previous governments and a number of office holders have had incorrect application of pension deductions. Retired civil servants who were in receipt of allowances prior to retirement were also the subject of miscalculations. The NSSO provides services such as human resources, payroll, pension, and finance management services to public service bodies. The full scale of the issues, relating to payroll and pensions, and the number of people impacted is still being assessed. Advertisement The Cabinet was briefed on the administrative errors in the NSSO on Tuesday. There are three cohorts impacted by these errors: current and former ministers and office holders, Civil Service retirees with work-sharing patterns, and retired senior civil servants. The Department of Public Expenditure said the issues were not the fault of any of the individuals impacted. A pool of 13,000 retired civil servants is being assessed, a small fraction of whom are expected to be affected by the anomaly. Advertisement One issue relates to the miscalculation and under-payment of pensions for some work-sharing Civil Service retirees who were in receipt of allowances prior to retirement in the last 20 years or so. Another issue relates to the incorrect application of pension deductions for most members of the current Government, Ministers of State, some members of previous governments and recent office holders. This relates to superannuation deductions and Additional Superannuation Contributions (ASC) with respect to salaries, allowances and gifted income. The NSSO is starting a process to contact ministers to outline the issue to them and to make arrangements for the recoupment of monies owed or to issue refunds as appropriate. Advertisement The amounts involved range from hundreds of euros to the low 30,000s of euro, in terms of monies to be recouped. A number of ministers are due refunds ranging from hundreds of euros up to the low 20,000s of euro. The third issue relates to the administration of Chargeable Excess Tax (CT) and Withholding Tax (WHT) in respect of senior grade Civil Service pensioners. Chargeable Excess Tax is a tax on pension funds at retirement which exceed the Standard Fund Threshold, which is currently €2 million. Advertisement In a small number of cases, this tax was not correctly applied by the NSSO. Similar to the CET issue, withholding tax is deducted from retirement lump sums over €200,000 and most likely applies to those from principal officer level upwards. In total between CET and WHT, NSSO has identified 30 cases. The liabilities for this cohort range from a few hundred euros to €280,000. Ireland Nationwide rent controls planned as Government loo... Read More Minister for Public Expenditure Jack Chambers said the issues brought to his attention are 'completely unacceptable'. 'The NSSO has responsibility for the essential function of the provision of pay and pensions to public and civil servants and it has failed in this fundamental duty. 'I have instructed the CEO of the NSSO that the multiple errors must be corrected by the NSSO as a matter of urgency, particularly regarding the treatment of retirees who had been on a work-sharing pattern in the Civil Service.'

Defence at 5pc or learn to speak Russian? Spasibo, Mr Rutte
The secretary general of Nato, Mark Rutte, has come to London as the head of the most powerful military alliance on the planet to remind us Brits that unless we re-invest in our military capabilities we had better start learning Russian. Had we not achieved a similar feat after the 'awakening' of 1940, we would now be talking German. The development of Hitler's Nazi Germany in the 1930s is so frighteningly similar to Putin's actions in the 2010s and 2020s as to make you think the same playbook is being followed. Appearing to almost directly address Ms Reeves – ahead of her spending review on Wednesday – Rutte said: 'If you do not go to the 5 per cent, including the 3.5 per cent for defence spending, you could still have the NHS … the pension system, but you better learn to speak Russian. That's the consequence.' Rutte means 3.5 per cent of GDP on defence – as opposed to Keir Starmer's only concrete target of 2.5 per cent – plus another 1.5 per cent on security and infrastructure. In some respects Rutte is wrong. There will be no welfare state and no NHS if Putin takes over. Just look at the fate of ordinary people in Russia who can barely afford to eat, and both inflation and interest rates north of 20 per cent and rising. That shows what life might be like under a modern Warsaw Pact. Mr Rutte realises that we cannot appease tyrants like Putin and the only way to scare them off is to show strength. 'We are deadly serious that if anyone tries to attack us, the consequences of that attack would be devastating – be it Russia or anyone else,' he said. We must not repeat the mistakes of our forebears in the 1930s, who failed to rearm to the level of deterrence. If we had realised that only total domination of Europe would satisfy Hitler, we would have confronted pressing demands at home for more welfare spending and avoided war – not by letting the aggressor have his way, as was famously attempted by Neville Chamberlain, but by being strong enough that Hitler would have avoided a confrontation. As history recalls, when Chamberlain returned from Munich saying he had chosen 'peace in our time', Winston Churchill rebuked him: 'You were given a choice between war and dishonour. You chose dishonour, and you will have war.' If we look realistically at what Putin has been telling us for the last 20 years we will understand that only the re-establishment of the old Soviet Union will satisfy him. The fact that none of those countries want to be part of Putin's Russia, means only one thing, as we are sworn to defend them under Nato Article 5: war. If we abandon them, we will be dishonoured – and we will be next, facing an enlarged empire with even greater resources. The Germans, realising belatedly the threat of another tyrant who wants to subjugate them, have issued a stark warning this week. Herr Bruno Kahl, head of the Federal Intelligence Service, said his agency had clear intelligence indications that Russian officials believed the collective defence obligations enshrined in the Nato treaty no longer had practical force. 'We are quite certain, and we have intelligence showing it, that Ukraine is only a step on the journey westward,' says Kahl. Secretary General Rutte is spot on. This message from a former European liberal politician may get many backs up here, but we cannot ignore it. History tells us he's right. Sadly we do not appear to have a Churchill among our modern day politicians to lead us through the coming confrontation with Putin. I know from comments added to my previous pieces on this subject in this paper that there appear to be some who want us to capitulate and give up without a fight. Most of them are clearly Russian bots, part of the massive Russian propaganda machine who would want us to do exactly that. But if people think life in Britain is bad now, look east and see the misery most Russians live under. Let us heed Rutte's warning, and in the immortal words of Donald Trump 'build baby build' military capability. Quite frankly if we fail to defend ourselves now, everything else vexing people at the moment will become horrifically irrelevant.
