Loch Ness Monster hunter refuses to sell souvenirs to US tourists over Trump trade war

A hunter has taken his own stand against trade war by refusing to sell souvenirs to American . Steve Feltham creates and sells clay models of the infamous mythical creature Nessie to fund his search in the Highlands.

Despite this being his source of income for his full-time search, Mr Feltham has dramatically cut the number of people who can buy his goods by banning from getting their hands on his items, in retaliation to Trump's bizarre global . The Nessie hunter defiantly said his products "are no longer available to purchase by people ordering from the USA”.

Feltham dramatically turned off comments on his posts after receiving a barrage of hate from infuriated Americans. The Loch Ness monster hunter brushed off the American anger and stood by his decision.

He told : “I'm not interested in a discussion about what kind of Trump is creating. I'm not subjecting you to my political viewpoint, and this is not the place to be subjected to other people's."

Despite this, one person cheekily replied saying: "You’re missing a trick here Steve. Put your own 50 per cent tariff on them." Another person said: "They have their own monster to contend with."

Trump shocked and confused the world this week when he unleashed his tariff bombshell late on Wednesday. The US President imposed levies on most countries across the globe, including a 10% tariff on goods from the UK.

A shocking when his levies dropped as fears of a global were sparked. Olu Sonola, head of US economic research at ratings agency Fitch, warned: “Many countries will likely end up in a recession. You can throw most forecasts out the door if this tariff rate stays on for an extended period of time.”

Feltham has not been the only person to change who they sell their goods to after the shock economic situation. Jaguar Land Rover revealed it will "pause" shipments of to the US as the British company looks to "address the new trading terms".

Although Trump set a 10% levy for the UK he hit the car industry hardest by imposing a 25% blanket tariff on all foreign cars imported into the US.

Jaguar Land Rover exports around 38,000 to the US in the third quarter of 2024. This staggering number is nearly equal to the amount of cars the company sold in the UK and EU in the same time.

Despite sending shockwaves across the globe, Trump has outrageously decided to ignore the panic as he was spotted enjoying a on Friday.

The President had also spent time on Thursday at one of his courses in Miami where he attended a Saudi-funded tournament.
