🇫🇷 'Our defence relationship with France is deep, strategic and important. But it will only move to another level if France stops treating us as a renegade state needing to be punished for Brexit' | Writes Jeremy_Hunt
One of the French phrases I learnt quickly as foreign secretary was “On ne peut avoir le beurre et l’argent du beurre”, which literally means “you can’t have the butter and the money from selling it”. A more familiar translation would be “you can’t have your cake and eat it” – and this was the message that France hammered home with boring repetitiveness during the Brexit negotiations.
