Top level talks to secure 'best deal' on US tariffs

HIGH-LEVEL talks are ongoing after Donald Trump's announcement of 15% global tariffs and the Government wants "the best possible deal" for UK firms, a Cabinet minister has said.

Top level talks to secure 'best deal' on US tariffs

Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson admitted businesses face "uncertainty" after the move but insisted Britain expects its "preferential" trade arrangements with the US to continue.

The US president said on Saturday he would be imposing a 15% global tariff "effective immediately" after the Supreme Court overturned his previous import taxes policy in a ruling on Friday.

The UK's biggest business organisation swiftly expressed dismay at the announcement and urged the Government to continue dialogue with US counterparts to keep Britain's competitive advantage.
