President Donald Trump signs executive order to reduce tariffs on UK cars to US .

Deal will bring into force parts of tariff deal agreed between the two countries last month .

Deal includes a 10% levy on most UK goods, including cars, but does not address removal of steel tariffs.

Deal is the first that the White House has announced since it imposed wide-ranging tariffs on various goods.

"He's done what other people - they've been talking about this deal for six years ... and he's done what they haven't been able to do." The pact has drawn criticism by opposition parties in the UK . Conservative party leader Kemi Badenoch has called it a "tiny tariff deal"..
