Trump’s latest tariffs put UK at disadvantage to EU, say experts
Donald Trump’s new tariffs have placed UK businesses at a disadvantage against the EU, despite the overall tariff for British goods remaining unchanged. The EU’s previous 15% tariff was reduced to 10%, aligning with the Turnberry deal negotiated by Keir Starmer and Peter Mandelson, while sectors in the UK not covered by this agreement face stiffer competition.
