YouTube Description
as posted by the channelBritain needs to buy US chlorine-washed chicken in return for lower tariffs, Donald Trump has demanded.
The US President's comments come in the wake of his 'Liberation Day' announcements, with the UK facing hefty 10% tariffs on all goods imported by the US.
As a result, Starmer's government has now opened a four-week consultation with businesses on the possible implications of retaliatory tariffs.
Speaking on Thursday, Trump told Britain should be eating more US food, with the White House statement reading: “The UK maintains non-science-based standards that severely restrict US exports of safe, high-quality beef and poultry products.”
Speaking on the subject of US meat-processing practices, Rachel Reeves declared last year: “We’re not going to allow British farmers to be undercut by different rules and regulations in other countries.
“We opposed [allowing the imports] in the last parliament, and that won’t change.”
Rachel Reeves is expected to make a case for a trade deal in her first meeting with the US treasury secretary.
Paul Brand is joined by NFU President Tom Bradshaw and former shadow trade secretary Sir John Redwood who debate over importing chlorinated chicken.
