Trump’s latest tariffs put UK at disadvantage to the EU, say experts
Donald Trump's new tariffs have placed UK businesses at a disadvantage against the EU despite the overall tariff rate for the UK remaining unchanged. Sectors not covered by the Turnberry deal now face tougher competition, as the EU's previous 15% tariff was reduced to 10%, matching the rate under a deal between Keir Starmer and Peter Mandelson.
