Sam Lowe, a trade expert at the Centre for European Reform, said that Mrs May’s call for British rules to stay “substantially” similar to those of the EU made a US deal harder. “Theresa May’s speech suggests that a US-UK deal is not a priority for her. She wants to stay closely aligned with the EU and it will be for future parliaments to diverge.”
