Donald Trump and Sir Keir Starmer said today was a “historic” day as they formally announced a UK-US trade deal.
Donald Trump said it was a “great honour” to have the UK be the first trade deal signed with the United States, hailing a “full and comprehensive” deal.
The main aspect of the deal is that it removes the blanket 10% tariffs the Trump administration had imposed on imports from the UK – which is what Starmer would have hoped for.
It is the first deal Trump has struck with another country since coming to power and imposing his aggressive tariff policy.
As both nations await more information, Iain Dale is joined by expert guests and callers alike to discuss.
