Sir Keir Starmer’s efforts to secure a free trade deal with the US are at risk due to a free speech row.
The US State Department has expressed concern over freedom of expression in the UK, particularly concerning the case of Livia Tossici-Bolt, an anti-abortion campaigner who was prosecuted for holding a sign near an abortion clinic in Bournemouth.
A source familiar with trade negotiations has warned that there should be “no free trade without free speech.”

President Donald Trump is set to impose tariffs on imports from all countries, including the UK, starting tomorrow, 2 April. The UK government is bracing for these tariffs and Prime Minister Starmer has admitted that the likelihood of tariffs hitting the UK is high.
Despite the looming tariffs, the UK and US are still in talks to negotiate an economic deal. The UK’s Business Secretary, Jonathan Reynolds, has stated that free speech has not been a part of the tariff negotiations.
However, The Telegraph reports, in a highly unusual step on Sunday night, the US state department issued a statement saying it was “concerned about freedom of expression in the United Kingdom” and was “monitoring” the case of anti-abortion campaigner Livia Tossici-Bolt. Tossici-bolt was prosecuted for holding a sign near a Bournemouth abortion clinic reading: “Here to talk if you want.” A verdict in the case is due on Friday.
Asked about the comments, a source familiar with trade negotiations told The Telegraph there should be “no free trade without free speech,” a stance thought to have become a point of contention between the two nations.
An official from the US Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights and Labour, a bureau within the Department of State, said: “US-UK relations share a mutual respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms. However, as Vice-President Vance has said, we are concerned about freedom of expression in the United Kingdom … It is important that the UK respect and protect freedom of expression.”
The UK government has sought to downplay the issue’s relevance to formal trade talks. A Whitehall source said: “We know it is something they have a bugbear about. We are happy to have discussions on our broader, wide-ranging relationship. I don’t think enhancing our economic engagement that is beneficial for both countries is contingent on this particular issue.”
UK Business Secretary Jonathan Reynolds denied that US concerns about free speech in Britain had played any part in trade talks, saying that such worries were being expressed by the State Department rather than trade negotiators.

Hi Rhoda,
The US would help us more by stopping their Chemtrailing over us in the UK.
It seems that 25 states in the US have banned Chemtrailing over them.
Yet, they are Chemtrailing us on a daily basis.
Are they really our friends ?
There are chemtrails all over the world. I doubt if only the US is doing it. Evil and Satanic “governments” are doing it in unison. BTW, “government ” is an abstraction; it’s really people doing heinous things to other people for money and power.
No there aren’t. Look up the WW2 documentary Memph8s Belle on YouTube by typing in WW2 bomber contrails….specifically refers to them.

Safe and effective. Did you believe that too? Psy op.
About a month ago, a Germany court sentenced a Lufthansa pilot who refused to spray chemtrails.
In the USA, Trump censures and punishes those who protest against the geocide in Gaza. UK trade commission could bring that in the scales of arguments
Jackanory.

It’s Satire.
https://beforeitsnews.com/prophecy/2025/03/trump-launches-chemtrails-task-force-with-power-to-arrest-geoengineering-criminals-2571284.html
Safe and effective. Did you believe that too. Psy op which you are falling for so you literally look in the wrong direction.
I have great respect for that Lufthansa pilot. I pray that more pilots will refuse to poison their fellow man (and themselves and their own families, makes no sense). I’m not saying that the US is not at the forefront of chemtrailing, but I am sure other countries are also involved. It’s a worldwide, coordinated activity. Only Satan could pull that off. It’s ultimately a spiritual battle. We can’t stop it on our own. We need Jesus’s help. I suggest we pray hard to him. Peace to you.
Hi Wide Awake Pete,
If you go on Planefinder, you can track the planes in your sight, as they fly over in real time.
I asked a friend of mine who worked in radar, at a nearby airfield, if he could track these planes.
He came back and said these Chemtrail planes, were at 35,000 feet, and were military.
Sounds like a wind up. Just checked with my former colleagues at National Air Traffic Services and you are talking butter ollocks
You trust NATS?
Says it all.
Thank you Dave. Great that you share information.
What’s your aviation chemistry and meteorology background. There are no chemtrails…only water vapour caused by burning carbon and hydrogen, jet fuel..un oxygen and nitrogen, the atmosphere, which produces water vapour, CO2 and Nitrates, plant food…you think they are spraying seven miles up in 60 billion cubic miles of atmosphere? Brainwashed or a grifter.
I see no one has an answer. Just so you know, trained as a chemist by the MoD, very senior in National Air Traffic Services, and worked with the MET Office….how about you…bloke said…I was fully expecting the old contrails don’t linger…which is always worth a point in the chemtard bingo….they are water vapour, same as clouds, clouds linger, right? Clouds spread out, right? And no, I’m not jabbed, and WTC7 was the smoking gun…eh Larry…and I am a real Reverend….anyway, at least you don’t take everything at face value, even if you are wrong about chemtrails…anything they spray, you won’t see, and as for dimming the sun, hilarious bit of hubris….what’s the surface area of the Earth? Is the atmosphere a non linear chaotic system?hmmmmm
Did you watch Monkee Reverend? I have a Flight 24 log from Cardiff that you could try and explain. 1.30 am flies from Cardiff to Cornwall and does circles over a bay at differing altitude then flies home. I checked the FR24 webpage just to make sure it wasnt an alien invasion on a sky roundabout – Vanguard owned the plane.
Survey flight. Debunked. Try harder.
Reverend. As an Engineer who studied combustion I to used to spout the contrail argument. However it’s not really “The” argument. You see over the last few years they have been experimenting with new bio fuels, engineered fuels and graphene oxide additives etc. All of this goes on and the trails, whether you believe they are Chem or Con, are lingering longer. Not all planes give the same output at the same altitude. The skies no longer stay clear and hence we are affected by them. We shouldn’t have to put up with it. Transparency is required and better monitoring and reporting at a government level. No flight should go un-monitored.
So what’s your aviation experience, what’s your meteorology experience, what’s your chemistry experience.. bloke said..I’m not spouting anything just telling you the actual acience. Lingering is the key. How long do CLOUDS lunger. Are you a CLOUD DENIER. You win a pount in the chemtard bingo. NEXT.
That’s not a very helpful comment. Show a little grace…
I am nor here to be helpful. I am here to debunk flat earth types like chemtards who ignore science and spread garbage.
I’m a flat earther (a believer in biblical geocentricism), so I guess I must be one of your “chemtards”? So be it.
Hi Islander, I think there is much to be admired about so-called “flat earthers.” I like the way they are not afraid to think outside the box.
Hi Reverend Scott, what is your “expert” explanation of this:
Spanish Government Ordered Military to Spray Lethal Chemtrails on Its Citizens as Part of Secret UN Program
https://expose-news.com/2022/07/07/spanish-government-ordered-spraying-chemtrails/
And this:
“At the end of June [2023], the European Commission called for talks at the highest international level on the risks posed by the possible use of climate geoengineering. The Commission Executive Vice-President told reporters that “this is an issue with global indications and considerable risks, nobody would do experiments alone within our shared planet.”
“One type of geoengineering is called stratospheric aerosol injection, which entails aeroplanes releasing tiny particles, Euro News reported. The spraying of particles or chemicals from aeroplanes is colloquially known as chemical trails or chemtrails.”

And this:
UK Government Refuses To Deny Chemtrails Exist
https://expose-news.com/2023/09/19/uk-gov-refuses-to-deny-chemtrails-exist/
And this:
CIA Director talks about chemtrails at a Council on Foreign Relations event
https://expose-news.com/2023/07/01/cia-director-talks-about-chemtrails/
Explanation? Zero empirical evidence for your claim which is classic no sense of scale chemta4d bloke said.
It’s almost funny that you are taken in by this garbage. Politicians are pretty dumb. At what altitude are these things taking place at hmmmm. Contrails don’t form above 42000 feet so I’m assuming this is at a higher altitude…with what aircraft exactly….hmmm ? U2, SR71? Not exactly much of a payload, but we’ll done for playing chemtard bingo….
As I said, trained as a chemist by the MoD, very senior in National Air Traffic Services, worked with the MET Office….didn’t go to BlokeSaid university like you. Was that the Gullible Island branch?
Hi Reverend Scott, am I to understand from your responses that you have no explanation why officials in multiple countries have openly talked about geo-engineering and what is colloquially known as chemtrails?
Is it possible that you dare not look into it because it scares you? Perhaps you feel chemtrails are something out of your control and you’re only comfortable when you’re in control of things?
I believe a lot of people who have a fear of flying (aviophobia) have a fear born out of not being in control. Because they’re not in the driving seat, so to speak, they feel the plane is out of their control (particularly if something goes wrong) and so they develop a fear of flying. People with aviophobia recognise they have a problem and want to over come it, which is admirable don’t you think?
PS several of your comments are being abusive towards other users of this site – effectively, you’re trolling our readers. If you can’t discuss or debate in a cordial manner, I will delete your comments from now on.
Convid was a hoax yet officials in many countries spoke about it. The vaccine was neither safe nor effective but officials in many countries spoke as if it was. Nice strawman….perhaps these hubristic officials that you speak of are trying to impress or scare people. I don’t care about them, I just know the chemistry of her fuel. I’d you wish to confuse civil aircraft flying in controlled airspace seven miles up leaving water vapour with some nefarious sceme to control 60 billion cubic miles of atmosphere…laughable, that’s up to you….on a planet with a surface area of 197 million square miles? Have a sense of scale. Remember that with a combined volume of a mere 1l10 of a cubic mile, humans are insignificant on this plant planet…99.64 percent of the biomass is plants and they are in control of the atmosphere…not egotistical humane.
Hi Reverend Scott, you assume people who talk about chemtrails are ignorant in every respect (in comparison to yourself, that is). This is a misjudgement on your part.
Almost everyone on the planet who knows what an aeroplane is, knows the difference between a chemtrail and contrail. It really isn’t that difficult to spot the difference (and on occasion smell the chemicals in the air or touch the residue on objects when it falls). Plants also can tell the difference, the chemicals get into the soil and affect their growth.
Secondly, your belief that they are trying to fill the entire atmosphere with chemtrails, is your own twist in the story. I don’t know where you got that from, I haven’t seen anyone else mention it.
As for “hubristic officials” who’s opinion you don’t care about. I’m guessing you only care about the opinions from people who agree with you, and ignore the evidence to do so.
Do you have aviophobia by any chance?
I assume nothing
The arseumption is all yours. I said no such thing. It’s in your mind.
Deflection appears to be your speciality. There are no chemtrails, only contrails. The science is on my side. Bloke said doesn’t count. Enjoy your echo chamber.
Your assertion that everybody knows the difference between a contrails and a chemtrail is very funny. Arseumptions like that really show you up. Most people don’t even know what contrails are. Like all flatcearth types you wildly over estimate your support.
Delete my comments if you wish it just proves you have no argument. I think you’ll find that the actual abuse was aimed at me first, just like your insults….
Funny should threaten to delete my comments yet moan about this site being censored, and censorship in general…talk about hypocrisy.
I just realised how off topic we are on this article about free speech but at the same time , me debunking chemtrails is a good illustration…you got very upset….lol…perhaps you should look into the Hunga Tonga underwater volcanic eruption which threw Ash and Water high into the troposphere and has left the stratosphere absolutely soaked. Now that’s Geo engineering by nature….makes anything we do seem laughable….ah the hubris of puny humans….and sensitivity of those hubristic humans who think they control nature…..when they clearly do not….
Hi Reverend Scott, I’m not upset, let alone “got very upset.” Sorry to disappoint you but I’ve seen hundreds of what you consider “upsetting” comments over the years – its just another day in the office for me, so to speak. But I do ask that you, and everyone else, treat other users of this site respectfully and post comments that encourage discussion and debate.
Denial is the first step. Treat me with respect then. The science is on my side. Tell me all about the chemistry of jet fuel. Go on. Then ask the 340,000 pilots about so called chentrails. Then tell me all about your knowledge of aviation…and tell me that the atmosphere isn’t homogenou. Also you made a remark about not filling the whole atmosphere….do you think the sun is small and local. Dimming it? To anyone with the slightest knowledge of nature that is hysterical. What caused the red sky at night….come on….think about it…
“Ask the 340,000 pilots?” Just as good as ask those NASA guys if we landed on the moon…
Debate? That’s a laugh when it comes to flat earther chemtrailers…they can’t debate because they are wrong…which is why you threaten to delete my comments…tsk
I am totally shocked at your lack of knowledge and research reverend. If you watch the ‘Dimming’ it will clarify the difference between Chem and Con. personally I don’t think you deserve a reply which might explain the lack of answers you received.
Atmospheric modification could include any attempt to alter the composition of the atmosphere to try to change local weather patterns or affect the climate to curb global temperature rise. It’s been going on since the Vietnam war. Why don’t you listen to the head of the MET office where he explains what they do to prevent the earth warming by blocking the sun and reducing the temperature all under the guise of saving the planet. For God sake take your head out of your ar*e and do some research. Try using a more secure and private search engine.
Totally surprised at your Gullible Island status. The dimming is laughable once you know statistics like say, the surface area of Earth….go on, tell me…and the volume of the atmosphere…..tell me….you must be a flat earther….they have no sense of scale, a huge sense of self importance and zero empirical evidence.
Wake up. You are brainwashed. Go do some research into contrails and realise how stupid chemtrail is actually is. Ad a Reverend I say may Nature Bless you and keep you safe from Geo engineering grifters.
Could swear your reply is taken from the film Idiocracy. Checked with the MET Office and they say that your are talking butter ollicks. Dimming the sun on a revolving planet with a surface area of 197 million square miles and a non linear chaotic system for an atmosphere! Beyond laughable. Your head is so far up your fundament that you are rectally enunciation.
Mate you ought to lick your own ollicks. You can watch Jim Haywood from the MET office speak on you tube(sorry they have banned that video, but you can get in on bitchute) geo engineering or climate engineering as he calls it.
Oh and as to the Vietnam war agent Orange was dropped by C123 providers at low altitude. You ignorant clods are always looking at civil aircraft flying in controlled airspace seven miles up and saying oh look chemtrail….from the far king engines…which burn carbon and hydrogen in oxygen and nitrogen which produces CO2, nitrates and WATER VAPOUR…this is the actual science..want to deny it? Stop being a bloke said follower and think for a change. Start with a blank sheet. Oh and to get you started a single 747 engine produces seven tons of water per hour….look it up. Dehydrogen monoxide lol….that’s your chemical.
Bio fuels are still Hydrogen and Carbon. If you are such an expert you should know that. Hydrogen and carbon reacted in oxygen and nitrogen gives off water vapour.. FACT. If it shows up, or lingers or dissappear depends on the atmosphere conditions. YAFOS.
Graphine oxide. LMAO. Seven miles up. And clearly the trails STAY SEVEN MILES UP….LOL. What a troll.
Hi Reverend Scott,
Seems you are a muppet.
Just use Planefinder, the planes are from US airfields all over the world.
It’s about time they were gone from the UK.
If they are not bombing camel herders, they are spraying us.
Seems you have no data. Your statement means nothing. Zero empirical evidence, just arseumptions. Your new name is beaker. You have zero proof of your claim. Learn some chemistry wuck fit.
https://beforeitsnews.com/prophecy/2025/03/trump-launches-chemtrails-task-force-with-power-to-arrest-geoengineering-criminals-2571284.html
Psy op for cult members like you. Go spray some white vinegar fool.
You really are the Dr. Fauci of chem-trails.
It appears you have graduated from the university of BS. You have heard of an educated idiot ?
Weah hey, you can find it on you tube. Just type in Jim Haywood met office. He is another educated idiot.
A message here for the self-proclaimed, or secularly appointed, so-called “Reverend” Scott
Firstly, I’m certainly not going to “revere” you, the same approach to Mary as worship by the pagan Romanists. Are you one of those from this, or another, false “Church”?
You are clearly educated and professionally accredited by the State so the logical conclusion is that you are compromised and are not to be trusted
In your position as a “Reverend” have you actually read THE Bible instead of relying upon your own “education” (learning against learning, SJ of the Vatican?!)
“It is he that sitteth upon the circle of the earth,…” (Isaiah 40:22, KJV)
Now, before you argue, a circle is NOT a globe (DRB corrupt translation)
A circle is 2D, a sphere is 3D
You draw a circle on a flat, or stationary, piece of paper
You blow up a balloon into a 3D ball or sphere
Primary school children get this
Here’s some Mathematical equations for you just in case you’re ready to progress to the next stage;
Equation of a circle is x^2 + y^2 = r^2
Equation of a sphere is x^2 + y^2 + z^2 = r^2
Well done! Now, for the final stage
What are the physical values of the ball/sphere/oblate spheroid/pear shaped Earth?
A curvature of approximately 8 inches x (mile)^2
8 inches per foot so this becomes 0.666 x (mile)^2
What about the angle of tilt?
23.4 degrees from the vertical
This is (90 – 23.4) degrees from the horizontal = 66.6 degrees
What about the speed of the Earth = 107,208 km / h
This is roughly 66,600 mph
Rather a lot of 666 references here…..
“Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.” (Revelation 13:18)
Sorry, another Bible verse quoted here, you’re clearly relying upon your own so-called “intellect”
Finally as well as having taught University level Physics for many years, I previously worked in Military Intelligence.
So I can respectfully inform you that, when a Project or Operational name is allocated to an event, it is a REAL EVENT
In the case of so-called chemtrailing (GeoEngineering) it is Operation Indigo Skyfold, so it exists, sorry to burst your bubble (or circle?!)
Finally, don’t worry, I won’t come to your place of work and tell you how to sweep up!
