A new paper from Conservative MP James Cleverly and Tim Hewish, with a foreword from former Prime Minister of Australia Tony Abbott, makes the case for prioritising free trade agreements with key Commonwealth nations. Brexit offers the UK an opportunity to pursue an independent, worldwide trade liberalisation and tariff elimination agenda – ushering in a return to its free trading principles. The report marries up a commitment to free trade and support for the Commonwealth in British foreign policy that has been neglected in trading terms for decades. A new five-phase approach offers the most practical way to ensure that the UK utilises the Commonwealth for mutual benefit through free trading principles.
