Episode Description

Renowned U.S. international trade attorney Peter Quinter speaks on how likely it is that the US Supreme Court will overturn President Trump's tariffs.

Justin Hayden Miller, a global trade lawyer, sits down with Peter to unpack the legal battles surrounding Trump’s controversial trade policies. From whether they are constitutional to Trump's unprecedented use of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) of 1977, we dive into whether his tariffs will ultimately stand up in U.S. courts, or whether the US State will have to reimburse importers the tariffs already paid.

Key Topics Discussed:

• Trump’s Tariff Strategy: How President Trump’s executive orders since January 20, 2025, have reshaped U.S. trade policy.
• Legal Challenges: Two landmark cases (VOS Selections Inc. vs. United States and Learning Resources Inc. vs. Trump) headed to the U.S. Supreme Court, questioning the president’s authority under IEPA.
• U.S. Constitution and Tariffs: The role of Congress vs. the President in imposing tariffs, and the non-delegation doctrine’s impact on these cases.

Guest Spotlight: Peter Quinter

Peter Quinter, an equity partner at Gunster and chair of its U.S. Customs and International Trade Law Group, brings 35 years of expertise to the conversation. A globally recognized international trade attorney ranked in Chambers USA, offers unparalleled insights into their legal and economic ramifications.

Notable Quotes

• Peter Quinter: “These are the two most extraordinary cases that I’ve ever seen in my 35 years as a U.S. customs and international trade lawyer.” (On the Supreme Court-bound cases)
• Justin Hayden Miller: “Tariffs are somewhat on trial before the American people as well”

Episode Description

Join host Justin Hayden Miller, a global trade lawyer, as he interviews Richard Corbett, former Leader of the European Parliamentary Labour Party and CBE recipient, on Brexit and the recent UK-EU Reset Summit. Recorded the morning after the summit on 21 May 2025, Corbett shares his insights on Brexit, its economic consequences, its trade and business impacts as well as the summit's outcomes. Key discussions include:

- Brexit’s Economic & Trade Impacts: Corbett reflects on the 2016 referendum, the flawed Remain campaign, and Brexit’s economic toll, with a 4-5% GDP loss and £40 billion in annual lost tax revenue, as per the OBR.

- UK-EU Reset Summit: The summit addressed trade barriers, security cooperation, and agriculture, but Corbett notes it’s a modest step, not fully resolving customs union and single market challenges.

- Trade Challenges: From red tape to rules of origin, businesses face ongoing hurdles, with limited summit relief for most sectors.

- Security & Geopolitics: Post-Brexit, the Russian invasion of Ukraine and US policy shifts under Trump highlight the need for UK-EU collaboration.

- Future Relations: Corbett sees the summit as a mindset shift, paving the way for deeper UK-EU ties, potentially rejoining the EU by 2033.

Corbett also discusses Margaret Thatcher’s European stance, the summit’s “reset” terminology, and possible future Labour representation in the European Parliament. A must-listen for insights into UK-EU relations and global trade dynamics.
