As the countdown to brexit continues talks about whether the uk can do a trade deal with the worlds biggest economy, the United States is among the Top Priorities. The uk foreign secretary dominic raab is in washington today to meet his opposite number mike pompeo. Total trade in goods and services between the worlds first and sixth largest economies was worth 262. 3 billion last year.
