Agree

Yes, our country has been on the losing side of trade deals for too long

The Labor Party may agree with this statement to some extent, as they have often criticized trade deals that they perceive as unfair or detrimental to local industries and workers. However, their stance is not solely based on a perceived 'losing side' in trade deals, but on a broader concern for workers' rights and welfare.
