NEW: US & UK officials tell CNN that the trade deal will be “limited in scope, heavy on future commitments & leave the existing 10% universal tariffs in place on virtually all goods”.
It’s a concept of a deal.

Damn. He doesn't even understand how basic economics works. Or financial markets!
We are all trapped inside a clown car driven by the most senile and incompetent clown. Headed straight for a wall of despair.

He broke the trade deal with Canada and Mexico by imposing tariffs.
Why would anyone think his signature means anything? If he decides he doesn't like it he'll fabricate an emergency and just not abide by whatever he doesn't like that day.
A concept - not matched in reality at all these days
Trump and the GOP are raising taxes on consumers to reduce taxes for billionaires.

Fucking joke
They inflate their prices by 25%, two months in advance, on their cars and steel, and then say they will reduce their prices by 25% if you give them your markets!
Starmer & O'Brien got conned by the simplest sales trick in the book!
This agreement to remain the same will then have to pass Congress to enact.
🍊💩 “The greatest news ever” 🙄
A marketing stunt dressed up as diplomacy. Classic smoke-and-mirrors politics.
This administration is doing such a great job.
It’s a con.
Why would the UK allow themselves to be “used” like this by this lying administration?
Of course stocks are up. They're just relieved it's not something completely idiotic like Micronesia.
Like always it's used to give their mates alot of cash, by betting against the country
Insider trading all the way...
Meanwhile... the economy is burning down and no one has done a thing of any value.
Stupid move by the Uk for giving a patent of legitimacy to this initiate shitshow.
(fucking auto incorrect)
no plan.
Oh, wait... maybe it's just another lie.
This sounds like a shit deal designed for Trump to make a big announcement, although changing almost nothing for either country.
But the Constitution was supposed to shield us from autocracy and it hasn't do far.
Agreements only work if there's someone to hold both parties accountable.
No one has held Trump accountable ever.
No agreement made with him will ever stand if he changes his mind.
Certainly good news for JLR, Aston Martin, RR, etc.
And nothing in it that endangers a future deal with the EU, as far as I can tell.
