Reform UK leader Richard Tice has argued that Britain has “slipped down” the running to agree on a Brexit trade deal with the United States. International Trade Secretary Liz Truss has been pursuing a transatlantic trading arrangement with President Joe Biden. But Mr Tice has warned the US President has “a lot on his plate” at the moment and argued instead for an incremental deal agreed piece by piece. <\/p>\n
Mr Tice told GB News: “I think there is no question that under the Biden regime we have slipped down the pecking order of priorities.<\/p>\n
“And there is a huge amount on his plate frankly which we understand.”<\/p>\n
He added: “I have always said about a US trade deal which is always going to be difficult was we should look at doing these on a partial basis.<\/p>\n
“You don’t have to agree everything all upfront.”<\/p>\n
