 Brexit trade breakthrough: Truss on verge of huge whisky deal 'Why we left EU!'

Liz Truss is negotiating a major Brexit boost for the Scotch whisky industry in Australian trade talks.

The International Trade Secretary wants to make exporting the premium tipple cheaper by axing tariffs. Britain and Australia are in the final stages of negotiations on new trading terms and want to have an agreement signed off within weeks. A source close to Ms Truss said: “This is why we left the EU - to do deals like this and benefit key industries like whisky. Liz is locked in intense negotiations to get a deal over the line that will boost Scotland and all the whole United Kingdom.” Mail.
