Rule out a US trade deal

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

A Post-Brexit trade deal with the US poses multiple threats to the UK, yet Boris Johnson is desperate to secure a deal. The Trump administration is a humanitarian disaster - this is the time to condemn it, not tie ourselves to it.
A trade deal with the US will drive down the UK's food standards, threaten the survival of the NHS, and thwart the UK's plan to be carbon neutral by 2050 (www.tjm.org.uk/trade-deals/a-uk-us-trade-deal).
Boris Johnson has refused to condemn Donald Trump's use of brutality against his citizens, and would rather position the UK firmly under Donald's thumb.
Boris - this is the perfect opportunity to cancel negotiations with Trump, and send the message: 'We won't do business with a monster.'
