Brexhale: UK and EU finally shake hands again

Nine years after the Brexit vote, UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer and EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen were all smiles this week as the two agreed a new trade deal.

Covering everything from fishing rights to the use of e-gates at airports, Starmer said the deal, following recent agreements with the US and India, put Britain back on the global trade map.

But what does it really tell us about the state of UK, EU and indeed global trade, at a time where some kind of certainty has never been more necessary?

Joining Juliet Mann on this edition of The Agenda are David Henig, Director of the UK Trade Policy Project,  Pieter Cleppe, Editor-in-chief of BrusselsReport.EU, and Chris Southworth, Secretary General of the International Chamber of Commerce UK.
