Swiss-style deal with the EU is no easy option

Could we stop talking about a Swiss-style EU deal for the UK please (Report, 25 November)? The Swiss are far from resolving their relationship with the EU. Protracted negotiations to replace hundreds of separate agreements previously in place broke down last year.

Since then, Switzerland has been downgraded in the EU’s Horizon Europe framework programme for research, resulting in loss of influence. It has lost other access privileges too. There is no easy solution to be found here. Beatrice Türler Wilmslow, England, UK
