Love the right wing press reaction. They can't decide whether the deals are fantastic ( due to Brexit) , or a crap sell out, because its Labour , or we'd have been far better staying in the EU after all. The poor darlings are having a breakdown... Bless them.
You don’t get it. Starmer’s trade deal was a very small deal designed to address the tariff issue. The Conservatives one was a comprehensive trade deal which Trump would have signed had Biden not got in. Starmer has failed to take that forward, hence the criticism.

To be fair, I think the majority of those were ‘continuation deals’ negotiated by Truss.
