Hi John,

As we mark the 80th anniversary of VE Day, it's more important than ever to reflect on how standing shoulder-to-shoulder with our European allies is critical to our future peace and prosperity.

Joe Biden's powerful BBC interview yesterday revealed that he believes there is a greater threat now to democracy than at any other time since the Second World War. Trump's pressuring of Ukraine to cede territory to Russia, which Biden described as "modern-day appeasement", has put the post-war transatlantic alliances we've built over the past 80 years under immense strain.

But this is about more than just defence. It's about economic growth and creating a future where we can stand strong together. Independent research <[link removed]> shows that a better trade deal with the EU could provide up to 2.2% GDP growth – more than any other government proposal. Trade with our nearest neighbours is crucial to rebuilding our economy, securing vital defence spending, and strengthening our collective position on the world stage.

Here's how you can make a difference:

The UK and EU are meeting for a pivotal summit on 19 May. We need a broad agreement on the table, in addition to a defence and security pact, to drive growth on both sides of the Channel and ensure the UK remains an active and committed partner in Europe.

We've outlined 10 things we're doing in the run-up to the Summit, and identified what actions you can take here 👇
