No but only if the other country starts a trade war or attempts or actually economically blackmail the UK

What about the people having to pay more, the people come first so no

We should increase tarrifs on goods produced in unfriendly or illiberal countries, while having total free trade with our allies.

Yes but only as part of a targeted strategy for specific elements of foreign or economic policy.

The question is too flawed to answer properly. It may change according to product category and point of origin.

Depends upon the country. Flagrant abusers of human rights (China, Saudi Arabia etc) should have high tariffs placed upon them

We should only trade for conquest or to aid Monarchist/Fascist fighters or to create a peace agreement.

This should be considered on a case by case basis as there is reason to raise and lower tariffs in different sectors from different countries.

 @95TQTDFanswered…2yrs2Y

Only on products that compete with locally produced goods as a way to promote local manufacturing and business

 @95SDNQManswered…2yrs2Y

Yes but also held in reducing manufacturing costs in this country to stop us from seeking parts cheaper from abroad

 @95F5QM6answered…2yrs2Y

Only if they have headquarters based in the UK then they should increase tariffs based on what they import into the country.

Reduce tariffs for countries that adhere to human rights but increase tariffs on trade with countries that don’t

Firstly cost-push inflation would be awful right now also retaliation

tariffs without building and support the rebuild of national industry also allowing certain ally countrys to pass tariff restrictions could be good diplomatic ammo

No, but should encourage businesses to use sustainably sourced raw materials from country's with strong human rights polices
