UK-US TRADE: “Long term pain of giving away control over Big Tech a huge price to pay for short term advantage”, campaigners say

Keir Starmer and Donald Trump shake hands at the White House

Date: 1 April 2025
Campaigns: Trade

Commenting on ongoing discussions around a UK-US trade deal, Nick Dearden, director of Global Justice Now said:

Trump is a bully, and he will continue to hang the threat of tariffs over our heads until we give him what he wants. First and foremost, he is demanding that we prioritise the interests of Big Tech corporations over our own rights and protections – giving tax breaks to Elon Musk, and allowing US corporations open access to our private NHS data. The long-term pain of giving away control over Big Tech is a huge price to pay for short term advantage in a global tariff war. As with all bullies, we need to stand up to them. Starmer has shown no backbone to date when it comes to Trump. We need to demand he change course.”
