Indo-Pacific Trade Deal: Won't repair "fraction" of damage 

EMBARGO: 01:00 Friday 31st March

Responding to the Indo-Pacific trade deal announcement Liberal Democrat Spokesperson for International Trade Sarah Green MP said:

"This Conservative government is responsible for some shocking trade deals that fail to add economic benefit to the UK.

“We have seen in the UK our businesses tangled in red tape and farmers abandoned.

"The Conservatives have trashed the British economy with GDP stagnant and this announcement will not even repair a fraction of their damage.

“People need help with soaring energy bills not empty promises years down the line.”
