Syed was asked to write for CapX about the UK governments new UK Global Tariff (UKGT) which will replace the EU’s Common External Tariff (EU CET),.
Syed gave a qualified welcome to the new tariff, writing that “while classical liberals and free traders will not be entirely satisfied with yesterday’s announcements, as the US and the EU appear to be heading in a more protectionist direction it is refreshing to see the UK government firmly making the case for freer trade.”
