I am ignorant of the political relationship between the American and U.K. governments in recent history, but I can tell that the U.K. has appeared to sometimes act as the American lapdog since Tony Blair was elected. From what little I know, it looks as if it may even go back to Thatcher, and I speculate that most of this is the result of the relationship developed in WWII.
But perhaps someone with more political and historical expertise can shed some light on the subject.
No need to apologise. I am sorry for tending to start acusing people of ignorance so quickly.
I am absolutly not in the possition of making a judgement over British political history and it`s developments into the 21st century. I can merely make conclusions out of what I read from foreign press reports on the UK. And what I read from that creates the image of a xenophobic, unefficiant and broken society with and opportunistic elite running the political and economic field who are unwilling to take responsibility for their own failures.
