Explained: The UK鈥檚 post-Brexit trade deal with Australia
A trade deal between the UK and Australia has been agreed between Prime Minister Boris Johnson and his counterpart, Scott Morrison.
Downing Street said the new pact meant British products such as cars, Scotch whisky, biscuits and ceramics would be cheaper to sell to Australia.
However, there has been concern from UK farmers worried they may be undercut on price and standards.
The deal is the first to be built from scratch since the UK left the EU.
It is seen as an important step towards the UK joining a wider Asia Pacific free-trade agreement.
