Trump steeled

Still have to check the Mail!

Bruce Hendry US President Donald Trump’s proposed hike in steel tariffs will have a “significant impact” on the UK, the industry trade body has warned. This is Britain’s “deep and special” partner, the one who is going to give Britain its new economic thrust after Brexit?

Rod Macleod If Trump goes ahead with his new tariffs then the EU will respond with 25 per cent import tariffs on £3.5 billion worth of US steel imports.

Hog-weed He’s putting America first, but man, this could hurt us.

mediaone Actually no, things like this will also hurt America. He’s trying to divert attention away from the fact that he’s failing horribly and his White House team is collapsing around him. His advisers are either leaving or under investigation and so he’s making simplistic solutions that appeal to his base but will damage everyone.

The Mike I wonder if he’ll mind footing the bill??? He says he doesn’t know the legal position but then punts out a flippant comment.

Sean Bain So do the people that made it to work get extra money or days in lieu? Of course not. If you’re not at work then you shouldn’t be paid unless your place of work is closed.

David Richardson Small businesses can’t take the hit. If they are closed they don’t earn money so don’t get paid either.
