Keir Starmer has been urged not to appreciate Donald Trump because he considers a major tax cut for US technology companies after a sharp reduction in the benefits of disability and public sector jobs in the UK.
While the government is trying to agree on an exemption for 25 % of tariffs on British steel imposed by the United States – along with other possible tariffs currently considered by the Trump administration – the Chancellor has confirmed continuous discussions on digital service taxes, dealing with US major technology companies, including Meta.
The 2 percent introduced in 2020 is about £ 800m a year for the UK.
Rachel Reeves was optimistic that steel tariffs could be eliminated if the British strike with the United States, but failed to deny that it could make tax changes.
“You have to get the balance properly,” Ms. Reeves said.

This comes after ministers unveiled a 5 billion pound welfare last week, first hit the disability, along with programs to reduce 2 billion pounds to the Vyity offices that lead to about 10,000 job loss.
Rachel Maskel, a leftist representative – strongly opposed to the decline in prosperity – urged the government to prevent “lane to allow US technology companies to prevent hooks, while living for people with disabilities.
“With the Chancellor who is still looking for digital service taxes, just a few days before the spring statement, I am concerned about whether relief in what is seen as a frustration allows US technology companies to get out of the hook while paying for their own income,” he said. SupervisorHuman
“I know the Chancellor has to rebuild the economy, but who will pay for it, and it should never be the poorest of our society, which will result if the offers and retirees are eliminated.”
Meanwhile, the worker’s representative for South Nourich, Kidney Lewis, added: “It was quite predictable, given how disappointed the government of the Trump administration and technology oligarchy.
“This is the worst and precise type of transaction that Maga is [Make America Great Again movement] Instead of getting closer to Europe and standing together, we allow ourselves to tear. “
“Now the lab is even talking about scratching British tax on social media giants. Well, charm never works with bullying and does not work with Trump, and you can see that he has already put his tariffs on Steel,” said Libe Demo, leader Sir Ed Davi.
He claimed that the prime minister’s approach to Mr Trump was “good with him and I hope he would not harm us.”
While the EU responded to Mr Trump’s tariffs by announcing anti -trade measures and hitting US goods with retaliatory taxes, the Prime Minister has immediately resisted British invitations to return.
After Sir Kir said New York Times The weekend when he “likes and respects the US President”.
He warned that Britain faces a critical moment and could not try to choose the European or the United States.
“Churchill didn’t do it,” he said. “In my opinion it is a big mistake to choose now.”
