Faisal Islam: The UK's Trump trade deal no longer looks world-beating

Faisal Islam notes that the UK's trade deal with the US no longer appears to be as advantageous as initially thought. The US tariffs imposed on the UK remain largely unchanged, which is a significant concern. In contrast, other countries have managed to secure better trade agreements with the US, surpassing the UK's deal. As a result, the UK's trade arrangement with the US no longer seems world-beating.
