Andrew Neil has claimed that US officials are praising Brexit Britain for paving the way to strengthening the US- UK intelligence cooperation.

Mr Neil claimed that Americans were enjoying the fact Britain was able to make decisions about military and intelligence decisions without having to consult the European Union.

The former BBC journalist wrote in his weekly column for the Daily Mail that the US-UK intelligence sharing has become closer since it left the bloc.

He claimed that US intelligence and foreign policy officials were “lavish in their praise” for the way Britain “unilaterally” extended its world-class cyber warfare capabilities to all of Eastern and Central Europe from the moment Russia invaded Ukraine.

He claimed that he was told by former Prime Minister Boris Johnson about the Aukus deal, the trilateral security pact between the US, UK and Australia.
