Interesting article but may I suggest a more eloquent summation would be more appropriate glad rag!
I think we all realise that the 'special relationship' is completely a one-way street. I'm 'lucky' enough to work with the US on a daily basis and constantly witness their contempt for all 'foreign nationals'. However, our government continues to put us in an increasingly subservient position where we have no choice but to suck it up.
Bottom line, we don't have 300 million taxpayers contributing 20% of their GDP to Defence!
