as posted by the channel

The UK must decide how to react to tariffs from President Donald Trump.

Subscribe on YouTube

Despite President Trump's 90 day tariff pause, nothing has changed for the UK. Keir Starmer still faces the challenge of 10% tariffs, and 25% on cars.

Meanwhile, the trade war between the USA and China continues to escalate with the US President raising China's tariff rate to 125%.

How can the UK respond? Rachel Cunliffe is joined by the New Statesman's business editor Will Dunn and US correspondent Freddie Hayward to discuss.
