the Conservatives have a new attack line
0:02
against the government this morning
0:03
shadow business secretary Andrew
0:05
Griffith went on the offensive against
0:07
the government saying that the trade
0:09
deal with the US has not been signed
0:11
published and presented in any form
0:13
griffith posted a two-page letter
0:16
slamming the government's approach to
0:17
trade with the Trump administration in a
0:19
post on X adding that no one has ever
0:22
seen such a deal he accused the business
0:25
secretary of being much more chummy with
0:27
the Biden administration pointing out
0:28
that labor ministers met with the former
0:31
president's trade people on three
0:33
occasions with one of those meetings
0:35
being just within a week of Star taking
0:38
power in July griffith said that the
0:40
government's failure to deal with
0:42
Trump's trade team amounts to a
0:44
dereliction of duty to British
0:46
businesses and to stick the knife in
0:48
harder he questioned the relative lack
0:50
of details surrounding the deal asking
0:52
was the announcement of a UK US trade
0:55
deal pushed through for political
0:56
reasons and then he even joked "Has
0:59
Larry the number 10 cat got it?" in a
1:01
reference to the much meme'd Downing
1:03
Street pet the whole exercise is an
1:05
attention-grabbing and quite effective
1:07
attack on Labor but one that does get at
1:10
a weakness for the government for all of
1:11
Star's promises of growth and in
1:14
particular how this deal itself will
1:16
spark growth there is a lot that we
1:18
don't know about the deal with Trump so
1:20
far Star has announced tariffs on steel
1:23
and aluminium he says they'll be slashed
1:24
to zero having been set by Trump at 25%
1:28
earlier this year but we don't know a
1:29
whole lot else about the deal and the
1:31
slightly mysterious coms is in part
1:33
because this deal and what we know about
1:35
it so far is great PR for both sides
1:38
starmmer can look like the damn busting
1:40
PM who scored the deal that four Tory
1:42
predecessors couldn't manage while Trump
1:45
can show that his tariffs can amount to
1:48
effective leverage in trade negotiations
1:51
the problem for the UK is that the
1:53
government risks making false promises
1:55
if it can't deliver so has Stalmer left
1:57
himself an unexloded political mine or
2:01
can he make good on promises to carve
2:02
out a lucrative new trading arrangement
2:05
with Trump only time will tell for
2:06

story as it continues to develop head to
