Half-time in Germany and calling time on Trump's legal cases

This week on Taking Stock Mandy Johnston looks at Germany, where political shifts and an upcoming election have stirred up debates on the country's economic and social future. Mandy talks to Dr Katharina Karcher of the University of Birmingham. Donald Trump, now president-elect once again, is navigating a complex web of legal challenges. Mandy is joined by Joe Millar of the FT to break down where these cases stand, what they mean for his upcoming term, and how they could impact American politics on the world stage. Finally, back at home Mandy looks at what the business community wants from the parties ahead of the General Election 2024. From tax policies to housing and infrastructure, we’ll explore the promises being made and the policies that could shape the future of Irish businesses.
