Government 'doesn't think' Donald Trump will impose trade tariffs on UK - but is 'prepared for all scenarios'

Cabinet minister Darren Jones said Donald Trump's presidency should be viewed as something positive for the economy rather than a risk - as the Tories urged Labour to resume free trade deal talks to avoid a tariff war.

The UK government does not anticipate that former US President Donald Trump will impose trade tariffs if he returns to office, but it is preparing for all possible scenarios, according to Sky News. Despite this, there is an acknowledgment that Trump's previous term saw the US engage in trade disputes with several countries, including the UK, over issues like steel and aluminum tariffs. The government's approach includes ongoing discussions with the US to ensure a stable trade relationship, regardless of who is in the White House. This preparation comes amidst broader concerns about global trade tensions and the potential impact on the UK economy, especially given the significant trade relationship between the UK and the US.
