The letter, seen by POLITICO, warned that the U.K.s current policy on only applying post-Brexit border controls in July 2021 could open the country up to dangers such as smuggling from the EU and a potential legal challenge at the WTO.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\n\u201cWere not an economy that can do without international trade. We have to fix this quickly\u201d <em>\u2014 Dr. Rebecca Harding, trade expert<\/em>\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Several former aides and officials said Truss and her department have had to step back as figures like Gove, U.K. chief Brexit negotiator David Frost and Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab play an increased role in all things trade.<\/p>\n<p>The position of Chief Trade Negotiation Adviser Crawford Falconer is emblematic of the divisions. He was supposed to be the countrys most powerful trade negotiator when he was hired by former International Trade Secretary Liam Fox in 2017. Yet despite overseeing a massive overhaul of DIT, his political influence has been hobbled, the former aides and officials say.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think his role as chief negotiator has been stunted by his perception of what [trade negotiations] look like and the way No. 10 works with him,\u201d said one DIT aide.<\/p>\n<p>No.10 resists any suggestion that DIT has been sidelined, pointing to the departments work leading trade talks for Britain, but neither Downing Street nor the department itself challenged the suggestion that its main focus is negotiating deals themselves, rather than anything more strategic.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWere focused on getting on with the job and have assembled a world class team of negotiators led by Chief Trade Negotiation Advisor Crawford Falconer. We are conducting the biggest trade negotiation program in recent history, with hundreds of negotiators working across four continents on trade deals with some of the worlds biggest economies, having already signed deals with 48 countries covering \u00a3110 billion of trade,\u201d a DIT spokesperson said.<\/p>\n<p>Observers have called for more clarity on who is calling the shots.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWere not an economy that can do without international trade. We have to fix this quickly,\u201d said Dr. Rebecca Harding, a trade expert and author of \u201cThe Weaponization of Trade.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The government appears to have sharpened its approach in recent weeks and months, she added. \u201cU.K. trade policy has made an almost seismic shift in the way its being presented,\u201d Harding said, explaining that the government is now taking an approach modeled on the U.S., with Raab stepping in with \u201cbig thinking around trade\u201d and its role in geopolitical strategy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTaking this type of strategic approach to trade is a risky game, its very high stakes,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>The push and pull between the major players will determine how pro-free trade or protectionist Britain will ultimately be. Heres POLITICOs guide to the people to watch:<\/p>\n<h3>1. No. 10 Downing Street and the Cabinet Office<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.politico.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/GettyImages-72281088-714x517.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Graeme Robertson\/Getty Images<\/p>\n<p>Harding attributes the U.K.s change in approach to the Cabinet Office and No. 10. Downing Street. U.K. prime ministers have a small staff in No.10 itself and are supported in the implementation of their agenda by the Cabinet Office, currently overseen by Michael Gove.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA lot of whats going on is out of the U.S. administrations playbook,\u201d Harding said, likening Liz Truss role to U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizers, as she charges around the world on behalf of Britain. Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab is wielding sanctions \u2014 playing Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and Peter Navarro, assistant to the president and director of trade and manufacturing policy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIts not necessarily about industrial policy anymore \u2026 its more about our strategic position in the world,\u201d Harding said, noting this is driven at the No. 10 and Cabinet Office level.<\/p>\n<p>A former DIT aide agreed that \u201ctrade policy now is being run out of No. 10\u201d and said the government is being \u201cdriven by centralization at the top.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But no single person is centrally coordinating the issue, several of the former officials said, pointing out that its important to have someone who understands how trade policy is linked to business and economic policy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere are big trade-offs if you agree to something with the EU that makes it more difficult to trade with the U.S.,\u201d said a former DIT official. In the end, \u201cweve got one department that has a pretty clear objective going one way and another department with an objective going the other way.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Groups that represent big business in the U.K. say theres no one to champion their interests either, according to two advisers for large companies.<\/p>\n<h3>2. Michael Gove<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.politico.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/GettyImages-1200691539-714x476.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Chris J Ratcliffe\/Getty Images<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.eu\/article\/michael-gove-british-cabinet-boris-johnson\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">longest-surviving member of the British Cabinet<\/a>, Gove now plays a pivotal role in decision-making on trade \u2014 co-chairing the U.K.-EU Withdrawal Agreement Joint Committee, which oversees the implementation of the Brexit divorce deal \u2014 with European Commission Vice President \u200bMaro\u0161 \u0160ef\u010dovi\u010d. He also chairs the EU exit operations Cabinet committee, known as XO, a small group of senior ministers responsible for planning for the end of the transition period.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHes a much bigger player,\u201d the former aide said. \u201cIt feels like DIT now is a symbolic department more than anything.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>If the government moves in a more protectionist direction on an issue, its likely to make the job of DIT harder.<\/p>\n<p>One specific area where Goves influence has been visible is over the debate over food standards between DIT and the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA). Gove, who headed DEFRA until last year, has defended farmers interests and has clashed with Truss and her team, who are more sympathetic to U.S. demands for lower standards.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWeve seen Liz Truss has already lost one of the biggest battles, which was this debate between agricultural food standards,\u201d said the aide, though others counter that this fight is ongoing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe idea of free trade within the Tory Party is absolutely fascinating,\u201d said one former trade official. \u201cYouve also got what has historically been the Tory heartland of farmers suddenly hearing about American food standards, which gets them really riled up.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>3. David Frost<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.politico.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/GettyImages-1204647926-714x476.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Kenzo Tribouillard\/AFP via Getty Images<\/p>\n<p>As U.K. chief Brexit negotiator, David Frost is extremely powerful and well-trusted by No. 10.<\/p>\n<p>Frost advised Johnson when he headed the Foreign Office and was hand-picked to return to the highest levels of government when Johnson became prime minister. He now runs Taskforce Europe, which reports directly to No. 10.<\/p>\n<p>Frosts deputy Matthew Taylor is said to be coordinating with DITs chief of negotiations with the U.S., Oliver Griffiths, and Frost also speaks to Falconer at the trade department. At various points this year, Frost has held discussions with other senior government officials about trade issues beyond Brexit talks, weighing in on negotiations with the U.S. and elsewhere, according to people familiar with the discussions.<\/p>\n<p>Last month, Frost was appointed to replace Johnsons most senior official, Mark Sedwill, as national security adviser at the end of the summer, underscoring the U.K.s geopolitical approach to trade.<\/p>\n<h3>4. Dominic Raab<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.politico.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/GettyImages-1163989967-714x476.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Jeff J Mitchell\/Getty Images<\/p>\n<p>Since his appointment as foreign secretary when Johnson became prime minister in July 2019, Dominic Raab has said more and more about trade.<\/p>\n<p>Raab was off to the U.S. last August to talk trade, well before Truss. Then in February, he was in Australia working to smooth the way for trade negotiations before talks officially began in June.<\/p>\n<p>Whenever he does a visit abroad hes always very trade-focused, said a former DIT aide. \u201cIts really unusual that the foreign secretary should be so forthcoming about global trade when weve got a trade minister.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>During these initial diplomatic trips, Raab gets a chance to frame how he sees potential trade negotiations.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe big thinking around trade is going on in the Foreign Office,\u201d said Harding, calling it a \u201cvery significant shift\u201d from the way things have been done in the past. The trade department has even been <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ft.com\/content\/2f20420c-0666-4c20-aea2-d45f43ddca9d\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">tipped<\/a> to merge with FCO.<\/p>\n<h3>5. Crawford Falconer<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.politico.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/GettyImages-73220906-714x473.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Ross Setford\/Getty Images<\/p>\n<p>Falconer is DITs chief trade negotiations adviser and second permanent secretary, the second-most senior official in the department. A dual citizen, he was once New Zealands chief trade negotiator and was brought in by Liam Fox in 2017 to bolster the U.K. governments trade capability.<\/p>\n<p>Falconer has been \u201cpivotal in upscaling the department for international trade,\u201d said one former DIT aide. \u201cPrior to him joining, there wasnt any trade capability in that department.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He has overseen the growth of the departments Trade Policy Group of trade technocrats from 45 in 2016 to 723 today. He has brought on board new IT systems, created databases of trade information and expanded the networks and policy expertise of the experts he has hired.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is phenomenal the scale of everything that has needed to happen since the referendum,\u201d said another former DIT official. \u201cWe often forget how much has been done.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Falconers role running DIT<a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.eu\/article\/power-list-who-matters-in-uk-trade\/?utm_source=RSS_Feed&amp;utm_medium=RSS&amp;utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Read More \u2013 Source<\/a><br \/>\n[contf]<br \/>\n[contfnew]<br \/>\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/snap.md\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/politico-logo.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<h5><a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.eu\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">politico<\/a><\/h5>\n<p>[contfnewc]<br \/>\n[contfnewc]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This article is part of Britain Goes Global, a series highlighting the launch of Pro Trade UK.
