Sorry UK, I'm all for deeper UK-EU security cooperation at this moment, but forget about this bridge illusion.
The EU will speak for itself.
And you cannot pretend to speak 'for Europe' and at the same meeting call for tariff carve outs playing on being 'not Europe'.

"German chancellor Olaf Scholz suggested that any discussion of European troops taking part in a peacekeeping force in Ukraine is"
The UK doesn’t speak for us. They have no seat at the table when the future of Europe is to be discussed. They can’t even decide if they are with us or the orange menace.
The idea of the UK “being a bridge” between the US and EU is nothing but a desperate, delusional, fig leaf.
Riding on the cooling embers of the old empire Westminster desperately tries to fan the illusion of significance.
Time to face facts and #RejoinEU.
I hear the Nobel comittee meet next week in Oslo to discuss a new Nobel Prize for Amnesia.
I should add that I can also confirm the bananas in shops are fierce bendy, so there is that.
he still combs his hair with a balloon but he can see the rise in support for reform, so, he realises that the english electorate are there for the taking.
Minister for itchy underpants is not enough for him.
It's like when they keep asking where all the ideas people in Labour have gone, despite spending five years watching them get thrown out of the party one by one in real time.
It's like they have to have their memory contractually purged every few months, because otherwise they'd have to start asking the awkward questions everyone else is already demanding the answers to.
I struggle to imagine how Starmer even thought this, let alone say it out loud.
It's embarrassing.
One is more than enough.
Labour is a huge disappointment and quite anti EU and it would be even worse if the far right win again in the UK.
All it would take is for Reform and the Tories to join hands.
The UK with its undemocratic system…
They are no longer our ally.
But the meeting in Paris is bigger than the EU and will include the NATO secretary general.
At a time when European nations need to stick together, you seem to want to cause division.
There’s a certain giddy excitement at calling Labour / Starmer “far right” or “Nazis” that comes across as hysterical.
The UK is unreliable.
The UK doesn’t have a seat at the table. They chose not to.
One day you're on here demanding better relationships between the UK and the EU ...the next you're moaning again
You lack credibility and are behaving like a spoilt child
I'm shaking my head at my government's delusion.
It sickens me too.
These relationships are very deep and intertwined with common goals, the orange skid mark is but a bump in the road which will soon be smoothed out by his own people.
Some people never learn!
But Sir K. thinks he is clever.
It is not like the UK has any goodwill to begin with.
Always playing and failing both sides.
We don't expect much from the Tories, but Labour is even worse, because expectations were at a higher bar.
But in addition to that we need to deal with hybrid warfare and also build a nuclear deterrence.
The UK has no say whatsoever.
You would reach more people, when you add a good description into the Alt-text field.
That is pretty easy, especially, when your image just contain text.
This way, you support visually impaired people and everyone else, who rely on a good filled Alt-text.

The UK has been decided to be “not Europe” that comes with its own unique set of consequences.
He needs to get on the side of Europe; and that's not a matter of political position, but simply one of where plate tectonics happen to have put his islands.
Its quite a stretch to be pro Europe but with a Trumpist stance
Patheticly citing the imaginary "special relationship" like a clingy ex
We should be begging the EU to rejoin, not grovelling to fascists.
Or the social welfare reforms that demonise the disabled and sick
How about putting through more anti-lgbtq legislation than was done under the previous government
Do you want me to continue?
There is no reason we should trust him. The EU speaks for the EU.
Starmer is cut from the same cloth.
Reform/Tories are too cowardly to admit they are fascists.
