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.”
