Baroness Kramer (LD)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 12 March 2025

Debate

US Steel and Aluminium Tariffs

Contribution

My Lords, will the Government give us an assurance that they will be extremely wary as they enter into, or continue with, trade talks with the United States? It has always sought very exploitative trade agreements to take advantage of both our National Health Service and our agriculture. The Conservatives negotiated a very weak trade treaty with Australia, which has done only damage. In these negotiations, will this Government be careful that they do not follow in the previous Conservative Government’s footsteps?
