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.

yes I know that

but there isn't an agreement in place, and wont be for several years



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.

I know

You clearly didnt unless you were being
flagrantly dishonest when you said that.

I was excluding that possibility

Not possible.

as the UK has no agreements in place

But there is no reason why it can't have those once it has left.
