Simon Harris becomes Ireland's youngest prime minister at 37
Quick Glance: Simon Harris Becomes Ireland's Youngest Prime Minister
  • Simon Harris has been officially sworn in as Ireland's youngest prime minister, succeeding Leo Varadkar who abruptly stepped down last month. Harris, 37, took the helm of the ruling Fine Gael party but faces challenges as the party trails behind Sinn Fein in polls.

  • A rapid riser in Ireland's political hierarchy, Harris has made a name for himself as Health Minister and most recently as Minister for Higher Education and Science. His political identity as a young politician has been marked by both supporters and critics, particularly standing out with younger voters and on social media platforms like TikTok.

  • Varadkar's government grappled with challenges such as housing crisis and increasing immigration numbers. Harris inherits a tough political landscape, especially with upcoming elections until March 2025. The political landscape in Ireland has shifted, with Sinn Fein emerging as a rising political force, leading to a shift in the traditional party landscape.

  • While Harris sees the idea of a potential reunification of Ireland as a legitimate aspiration, his focus remains on current challenges like housing crisis, rising cost of living, and immigration. Despite political changes and discussions about potential reunification, Ireland's future remains uncertain and complex.

Honda deal is good publicity for Liberals, but who will buy all those EVs?
Quick Glance: Honda to Establish $11 Bln EV, Battery Plants in Canada
  • Honda plans to invest C$15 billion in new EV and battery production plants in Ontario alongside existing facilities to support the growth of North American demand for EVs.

  • Production is set to start by 2028, with an annual capacity of up to 240,000 EVs and 36 gigawatt-hours for batteries to achieve the goal of having all North American sales from Honda be either EVs or fuel cell vehicles by 2040.

  • The Canadian government and Ontario province intend to support Honda with around C$5 billion, with Honda contributing 60%-70% of the total investment to reduce costs by more than 20%.

  • Honda will also collaborate with companies like Asahi Kasei and POSCO to further lower production costs and strengthen the EV supply chain in Canada, leading to an increase in jobs and economic growth.
