Kemi Badenoch Blames Donald Trump's Election Defeat To Joe Biden in 2020 for the UK's Failure To Get A Post-Brexit Trade Deal as the former President batters his remaining Republican rival Nikki Haley in New Hampshire
Kemi Badenoch has blamed Donald Trump's 2020 electoral defeat for the Government's failure to secure a free-trade deal with the US – a key goal of the UK's post-Brexit plans.
The Business Secretary claimed President Joe Biden's White House moved away from such deals, instead preferring to strike 'smaller packages on single issues'.
She said the change in administrations in Washington had been why the Government missed its manifesto pledge to strike trade deals by the end of 2022 with countries that account for 80 per cent of British trade.
Mrs Badenoch told MPs on the Business and Trade Committee: 'The biggest thing that had an impact on us reaching that objective was the change in administration from President Trump to President Biden.
'We were carrying out negotiations for a US FTA [free trade agreement]. The administration changed and the Biden administration is not doing FTAs.'

Color me surprised that the Biden Regime whose VP is officially labeled by herself as a "Democratic Socialist" as recently as the 2020 Dimwit Primaries was OPPOSED to the Capitalism and free market trade of a Free Trade Agreement with our closest ally in the world, England.
I am shocked. Shocked I tell you. Of course the Dimwits stance is as usual detrimental to both the US and England's economies....but who cares about silly things like economic security and prosperity???
Maybe we will find out in November.
