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?

    Should we try to bolster our friendship with Europe?

    I once had a girlfriend who started acting like a little bitch, created much drama and dumped me for no good reason. Then she tried to come back to me a few months later. Can you guess what I told her to do? It rhymes with “thereof”.

    Hint hint Britain.

      Holding a grudge is for losers. UK is more than welcome to rejoin as far as I’m concerned, speaking as a Swede.

      The UK doesn’t need to necessarily jump straight back into EU membership. There are other ways we can work together with Europe. Maybe at some point the UK government will consider rejoining the EU customs union and/or single market.

        My point was, Europe may not want to interact with a fickle country like the UK anymore than necessary again. They probably don’t need the aggravation.
