First we had green agenda, then the UK government not fullfilling their own contracts with domestic made steel, & now Trump with 25% tariffs for steel imports going into the USA. We really do need to get rid of this shopkeeper mentality in politics. #uksteel #labour #government

You're fucked lads, the US doesn't care what happens to you and nothing No 10 says or does will change that.

The only 'lobbying' that works in the US is bribery, you better have a whip around and see if you can bribe a US Senator....seriously.

2hago 12.07 GMT Bridgnorth Aluminium operates the only fully integrated aluminium coil rolling plant in the UK and employs 330 people in Shropshire. The company sells 20% of its volumes into the US and says the introduction of aluminium and steel tariffs will create uncertainty and, potentially, makes the business less competitive than the current system of quotas and exemptions. Adrian Musgrave, head of sales at Bridgnorth Aluminium, said: 44 These tariffs add another dimension to the global uncertainty we are all currently dealing with. If there is no movement on the 25% rate it will make trading with the US more difficult for us as a business, but it could also cause supply and cost issues for firms in America too. For example, for a significant portion of our US sales, there is currently no US producer. This means there is no threat to domestic aluminium production, yet companies using our aluminium may soon be hit by rising costs. What would we like to see? A deal between the UK and the US that removes tariffs all together or significantly reduces it from the 25% rate. This is something we are championing with the Department for Business and Trade and key manufacturing bodies, such as the Aluminium Federation, Confederation of British Metalforming and Make UK. We are grateful for the engagement of the UK government and the manufacturing associations, who are all lobbying hard on our behalf.

Our 'ally' that we have a 'Special Relationship' has done this to us, while we pretend they didn't really mean to hurt us, they love us really....

#uksteel #ukpol #ukpolitics #tariffs
8hago 07.12 GMT UK Steel: Tariffs will have "hugely damaging consequnces’ The tariffs will have “hugely damaging consequences for UK suppliers and their customers in the US,” the UK’s industry group UK Steel warns. They will also have a further harmful indirect effect of deflecting steel trade from the US into markets like the UK. Further reciprocal tariffs are expected to be announced by the US on 2 April. The US is the UK’s second most important export market for steel after the EU, particularly as it is a high value market, UK Steel explains. US exports account for 9% of UK steel exports by value and 7% by volume. This is mostly specialist steel that goes into areas such as defence, oil and gas, construction equipment and packaging. This comes at a time of global overcapacity and oversupply, high energy costs, and weak demand, making the the blow to UK exports “all the more detrimental”. UK Steel director general, Gareth Stace, said: 44 Today’s imposition of tariffs on UK steel from the US administration is hugely disappointing. President Trump must surely recognise that the UK is an ally, not a foe. Our steel sector is not a threat to the US, but a partner to key customers, sharing the same values and objectives in addressing global overcapacity and tackling unfair trade. These tariffs couldn’t come at a worse time for the UK steel industry, as we battle with high energy costs and subdued demand at home, against an oversupplied and increasingly protectionist global landscape. What’s more, the EU is also pushing ahead with trade restrictive action that will amplify the impact of US tariffs. It is essential that the UK Government not only continues efforts to negotiate exemptions with the US, but also takes decisive action to bolster our trade defences. We greatly appreciate all the efforts that have been made so far and will continue working closely with our Government to secure the best possible outcome.
