Prime Minister Keir Starmer on Wednesday said the UK will keep “all options on the table” after US President Donald Trump imposed blanket 25 per cent tariffs on steel and aluminium imports from across the globe.
During the weekly Prime Minister’s Questions (PMQs) session in the House of Commons, Starmer was asked by Liberal Democrat leader Sir Ed Davey about retaliatory moves as he urged him to be “more robust” in the face of American trade tariffs which would impact many UK businesses.
The UK PM expressed disappointment at the latest White House actions, which are designed to champion US manufacturing by making foreign-made products less attractive.
