00:00Anchored by the deep friendship between our people, this relationship, which with good

00:28reason we and our predecessors have long called special, has made us safer and stronger through

00:38the generations.

00:39Our people have fought and died together for the values we hold dear.

00:47We have innovated, traded and created together, fueling our economies and cultures through

00:56myriad forms of exchange that we have celebrated together, mourned together and stood together

01:06in the best and worst of times.

01:09Mr President, as we approach the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence next year,

01:19it is remarkable to think just how far we have gone.

01:25I cannot help but wonder what our forebears from 1776 would make of this friendship today.

01:34The rebel commander and pioneer First President George Washington famously vowed never to set

01:42foot on British soil, and my five times great-grandfather, King George III, for his part did not spare

01:51his words when he spoke of the revolutionary leaders.

01:56Today, however, we celebrate a relationship between our two countries that surely neither Washington

02:04nor King George III could possibly have imagined.

02:09The ocean may still divide us, but in so many other ways we are now the closest of kin.

02:19Mr President, you have spoken of your pride in your British roots.

02:23In fact, not only have you set foot on British soil twice in the last two months alone, but I understand

02:33that British soil makes for rather splendid golf courses.

02:38Now, for my part, I have always admired the ingenuity of the American people and the principles

02:49of freedom which your great democracy has represented since its inception.

02:57Throughout my life, from the very first visit to the United States in 1970, and over 20 visits

03:05since that time, I have cherished the close ties between the British and American people.

03:15In fact, had the media succeeded in the 1970s in their own attempt at deepening the special relationship,

03:25I myself might have been married off within the Nixon family.

03:34Mr President, from York to New York, from Birmingham, England to Birmingham, Alabama,

03:42we are united by a common language and shared heritage.

03:47The many thousands of people from each of our countries who have made the other their home

03:54have enriched our societies immeasurably, a fact that gives me the greatest pride.

04:01Our cultural connections, too, continue to flourish with our actors, musicians, writers, and television presenters,

04:11prospering in the hearts of transatlantic audiences.

04:16Today, our alliance spans every field of endeavour and shows vast potential for growth.

04:26The United Kingdom was your partner in the first trade deal of your administration, Mr President,

04:34bringing jobs and growth to both our countries, and no doubt we can go even further as we build this new era of our partnership.

04:47Our two nations have an exceptional legacy of shared discovery.

04:54Together, we laid the foundations of nuclear science, mapped the human genome, and built the internet,

05:04upon which all contemporary commerce, communication, and defence is based.

05:10Together, our scientists and engineers are shaping the world of tomorrow,

05:17not least with new partnership agreements on technology and the prosperity that stands to bring.

05:29Our countries have the closest defence, security, and intelligence relationship ever known.

05:37In two world wars, we fought together to defeat the forces of tyranny.

05:44Today, as tyranny once again threatens Europe, we and our allies stand together in support of Ukraine

05:54to deter aggression and secure peace.

06:00And our AUKUS submarine partnership with Australia sets the benchmark for innovative and vital collaboration.

06:11The successes of the British Redcoats and of George Washington's Continental Army

06:17today stand shoulder to shoulder, brothers and sisters in arms, protecting the freedoms we both cherish.

06:26Our countries are working together in support of crucial diplomatic efforts,

06:32not least of which, Mr President, is your own personal commitment to finding solutions

06:39solutions to some of the world's most intractable conflicts in order to secure peace.

06:48In striving for a better world, we also have a precious opportunity to safeguard and to restore

06:57the wonders and beauty of nature for the generations who follow us.

07:03We share the ambition and determination to preserve our majestic lands and waters, above all,

07:13to ensure that we have clean water, clean air, and clean food.

07:19Our legacy for the next 250 years and beyond is to ensure that our children, grandchildren,

07:26and those who come after them can experience the awe and magnificence of the natural treasures found in the countryside,

07:38on the coasts, in the seas, and in the national parks established by your predecessors and mine.

07:49Mr President, Mrs Trump, the bond between our two nations is indeed a remarkable one.

07:57Forged in the fire of conflict, it has been fortified through our shared endeavours

08:03and burnished by the deep affection between our people.

08:08Tested time and again, it has borne the weight of our common purpose

08:15and raised our ambition for a better world.

08:20So, in renewing our bond tonight, we do so with unshakable trust in our friendship

08:27and in our shared commitment to independence and liberty.

08:34Therefore, as we celebrate this unparalleled partnership, allow me to propose a toast

08:40to President Trump and the First Lady, and to the health, prosperity, and happiness of the people of the United States of America.
