and to our friends in the united kingdom i want to say parting is such sweet sorrow. but to use a line from t.s. eliot's what we call the beginning itself and the end and to make an end is to make a beginning. so to all europeans i say it is time to leave rex and behind our future is made and europe thank you so much our u.k. prime minister barak's chance and welcome the agreement has fantastic news he played up the strong relationship between the u.k. and the european union relationship that he promised would continue and so i say again directly to our e.u. friends and partners i think this deal means a new stability and a new certainty in what has sometimes been a fractious and difficult relationship we will be your friend your ally your supporter and indeed never let it be forgotten your number one market because although we've left the e.u. this country will remain culturally emotionally historically strategically geologically attached to europe not least of course through the 4000000 in you nationals who have requested to settle in the u.k. over the past 4 years
