World Briefing Plus: March 22, 2025

Thanks subscribing to World Briefing. Plenty of headlines to dissect, especially the efforts of Donald Trump to deport around half-a-million aliens. Behind them could be some 200,000 asylum seekers who fled Ukraine due to Russia’s full-scale invasion. One wonders who’ll be left to do the jobs Americans don’t want to - and how soon before the labour shortage sparks inflation or the shutdown of everything from farm operations and wineries to service industry businesses?

Things are returning to normal at London Heathrow (LHR) after that shutdown due to a power station fire. I can assure you bad actors have taken notice of the astonishing vulnerability of a key piece of UK infrastructure and of the global aviation system.

Bon weekend.
