Not surprised, but one of the points of Brexit, was that we would first in the queue when it came to deals with the US. It seems we are not.

He did at Cameron’s behest - it backfired spectacularly on Cameron, and it obviously would. However, Brexit was sold to us in part on the ability to do a rapid trade deal with the US. Much faster than if we were part of the EU. Now of course this agreement isn’t a trade deal, but it does seem to suggest that we now have weaker bargaining power than the EU when it comes to clearing up the tariffs that are hurting are economy (according to Steel industry folk). |

Was it? again i cant see what part of "you will be at the BACK of the queue" the voters didnt understand it seemed pretty clear to me and was well reported. 
Well we didnt seem to be weaker when they lifted tariffs on whisky etc over the airbus Boeing dispute and then lifted them on the eu a month later. |
