The UK government is preparing for potential tariffs from the US, with officials calling for a measured approach rather than reactive measures. Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson emphasizes the importance of calm negotiation and acting in the national interest of the British people. Anticipated tariffs from President Trump could disrupt the UK’s economic plans, leading to concerns over a possible trade war. Phillipson reassures that the government is aware of the upcoming challenges and remains focused on maintaining a pragmatic stance during this period of uncertainty in trade relations with the US.
We do recognise this is likely to be a very challenging period... we will always act in the national interest and the interest of the British people.
What they want, and what business and industry wants, is to maintain a calm and quite pragmatic approach during this time... the last thing that anybody would want is a trade war.
