Keir Starmer hailed a significant development with the announcement of trade agreements with India, the US, and the EU, highlighting the potential to protect jobs and bring substantial financial savings for businesses. During his address, he emphasized that these deals signify the UK's restoration of diplomatic influence and ability to engage in global trade. The latest agreement with the EU includes provisions to lower trade barriers while allowing longer fishing quotas for European anglers and easing access for British businesses to the EU market, despite some criticism from opposition parties.
Starmer said: These deals release us from the tired arguments of the past and as an independent sovereign nation, allow us to seize the opportunities of the future.
The deal will also pave the way for British defence companies to bid for money from the 150bn defence fund and should eventually allow UK travellers to use e-gates at European airports.
