The US president had previously described the deal as “full and comprehensive”, but today's announcement focused on a narrower set of industries. 00:00 Paul is 'relieved' but thought the 'boot-licking' was 'shameful.' 03:24 Vasco says we're a 'country of moaners' despite two big trade deals this week. 05:48 Sean doesn't like the freedom of movement implications in the India deal. 08:25 Sandra thinks Keir Starmer has 'stitched up the farmers again' with the deal. 09:44 Bob accuses Tom of being 'naive' in his response to the deal.
