Responding to US President Donald Trump’s sweeping set of tariffs, Green Party Co-Leader, Carla Denyer MP, said,
“We need to work together to oppose Trump’s divide-and-rule tactics. In the first instance, that means standing with partners like the EU and Canada who share our commitment to trade agreements rather than trade coercion. It’s a fantasy to believe that our long-term economic prosperity can be left in the hands of whether or not we are in Trump’s favour on any one given day. As such, we must prioritise securing a Customs Union agreement with the EU so that we regain the strength of being part of a larger bloc.”
