| The story of the Special
Relationship can be told in a number of ways. The triumph of
noble ideals. Sacrifices rewarded. Friendships forged and not
forgotten. Together America and Britain have helped re-make much
of the world in the image of liberty and democracy. The rule
of law, rights of property, respect for human rights – these
formative ideas have transformed the prospects of nations that
lived in the darkness of fear and despair. This relationship
needs to be constantly renewed and nurtured. This is what the
Atlantic Bridge was conceived to do.
We have created a network of like-minded
people - in politics, business, academia and journalism - who
come together to share views and experiences.
We will draw on the experience and expertise
of our membership in order to promote an agenda that will strengthen
the Special Relationship and champion freedom in a rapidly
changing world.
