We already had a trade surplus of almost $12bln with the UK. Let me know when China wants to actually talk to dumb dumb so we can get the markets out of chaos.
It is kind of easy to bully a country when you are already winning. Hell, the UK just wants to send over their shitty Jaguars and Range Rovers to us. Haha
In all seriousness, it's a least a start
if/when the deal is completed although the UK hardly affects the current state of volatility in our economy. But you have to start somewhere so hopefully it's a launch point to something bigger and better.

The core of the deal is essentially a trade where the UK will get a lowering of US duties on key sectors. Most in focus are steel — US duties on UK-made steel will drop from 25% to 0% — and car exports, where duties are set to be reduced from 27.5% to 10% according to a release from the UK.
In return, Prime Minister Starmer is offering concessions to open the UK markets more to things like US autos, ethanol, machinery, and agricultural products, as well as ongoing negotiations on so-called digital service taxes that hit US tech companies.
