Current tariff on soy sauce entering the UK from Japan - 0%. Tariff on soy sauce entering UK after UK-Japan trade deal - 0%.

Not a good look when you can't trust a government social media account to tell the truth. https://twitter.com/tradegovuk/status/1321187022883663873
Best not argue. Might have been accurate if the account had said "thanks to the trade deal the price won't go up compared to now". Also, checking my own soy sauce, it says "Naturally brewed in China. Blended in the UK" Is that going to be cheaper after a UK-Japan deal?
Yeah. Awkward. https://twitter.com/EmporersNewC/status/1321198677072007169?s=20
Also turns out major soy sauce brands sold in the UK aren't imported from Japan. Apart from that... https://twitter.com/jontringham/status/1321201878210912258?s=20
