That must be the most worrying statement:
"Australia aims to get tariffs and quotas dropped for all goods, which on the UK government's own estimates could boost imports from that country by 83% - mainly due to beef and lamb".

Liz Truss is busy carrying out her remit of trying to get trade deals at any cost, no matter how one sided or destructive they may turn out to be.

As food is 30% more expensive in Australia what's the fuss ?
