Import taxes are a 100% voluntary policy of the United Kingdom that has nothing to do with any negotiations (except insofar as the UK uses them for leverage). The government could abolish these taxes with the stroke of a pen, effective tomorrow.
>How can brexit negotiators fucked up so badly?
It's my understanding that a failure to reach an acceptable solution to the Irish border produced a worse deal with a Europe less willing to compromise and also drained away the time to negotiate new trade agreements before Brexit went into effect. In a sense, Britain's colonial past came back to bite it.
