Your support makes all the difference.Britain's foreign secretary James Cleverly has today told the Brussels forum he always believed friendly ties would be ‘the eventual outcome of Brexit.’
Mr Cleverly delivered a speech to the EU-UK Parliamentary Assembly, discussing our relationship with the European Union following a controversial Brexit.
“Strong relationships and regular contact will help us understand each other, by building a spirit of mutual understanding and mutual confidence that will allow us to think creatively,” he said.
“Now, when we work together, we don’t have to agree on everything, because a mature relationship can deal with differences.”
