Should we try to bolster our friendship with Europe?
The author claims that the UK government “must unambiguously launch talks on a big, expansive trade deal with the EU coupled with a deal on European defence”.
Do you agree?

It’ll never stop being funny to me that the UK claims to have special relationship with the USA, a thing that nobody over there has ever heard about or cares.
It’s like them thinking they’re the nemesis, in modern EU terms, to Germany and France, who also do not care about this
I think most reasonable people that follow these things don’t think there is a special relationship. They know full well where the balance of power lies and how much of a shit USA gives about the UK (or anyone for that matter).
Not even Ireland has a special relationship with the US, and that would be the closest country I can think of that might be able to claim such a relationship. With their history, and currently a self avowed Irish American president in charge. The US has only one special relationship and that’s with itself. Always has been and always will be.
Hell I don’t think most unpolitical people think there is a special relationship, it’s like a brainworm infecting uk governments exclusively
the special relationship is that they can talk to each other in their native languages
I’m British and I think the claim is fucking ridiculous.
