Downing Street officials support the 10% price on British exports – the lowest joint Trump applied to any country – “justifies” the approach of Great Britain, and many feared worse, given the value added of the United Kingdom added to most sales is 20%. The EU, which Great Britain left only five years ago, was charged by 20%.
There is however a less inspiring reason to continue the charming offensive. “They have no choice,” said Emily Thornberry, president of the work committee of the foreign affairs of the municipalities. “It is not in the interests (of the United Kingdom) to have a trade war.”
Politico spoke to more than a dozen officials, ministers and industry personalities, all have granted anonymity to speak frankly, to build a photo of the simultaneous research of Great Britain for prices – and ask if it could still be paid.
The special relationship
Downing Street used the White House visit of Starmer February 27 to publicize its pressure for an economic agreement. But the bases were laid before that; Reynolds raised the idea with Lutnick about a week earlier, during his first telephone call after Libnick was confirmed by the Senate, to make sure that he would not have died on arrival, according to negotiations for negotiations.
After Starmer returned home to the United Kingdom, the talks started seriously – usually limited to a circle of less than a dozen people.
The talks were officially led by Reynolds but helped strongly by Mandelson and Chandra – both arc networks which have sailed respectively in the worlds of geopolitical and finance of the city. Chandra joined Reynolds during a March 19 delegation to meet Lunick and Greer in Washington. Starmer intervened at key moments, although Downing Street refused to say if the PM exchanges SMS with Trump.
