A ROW has broken out on the second anniversary of the end of the Brexit transition period, with Labour attacking a host of “bad” trade deals since agreed by the UK – while the SNP say the Brexit-supporting party is a “co-signatory” to them.
It comes after Keir Starmer’s party accused the Tories of breaking a manifesto commitment to have “80% of UK trade covered by free trade agreements … starting with the USA, Australia, New Zealand, and Japan” by the end of 2022.
Nick Thomas-Symonds, Labour’s shadow international trade secretary, said that the Tories’ record had proven to be either “delivering no deals or bad deals”.
