UK tariffs are down to the UK.


agreed


We can apply any tariff we like within the WTO rules to any cou7ntry we
like. So, tax EU lamb, but not New Zealand lamb.


No we can't, that's the point


Yes you can when there is a specific agreement in place between Britain and
NZ.

we tax all lamb or no lamb, you cannot pick and choose where it comes from
when applying tariffs


Corse you can when there is an agreement in place.

NAFTA is one example of that and the current Fates are too.
