Good!
The British have just shown what they think of the craven “Labour” Government in Britain by comprehensively throwing out large numbers of time-servers and sychophants. The results of the (local) elections are as much about the Iraq and Afghan wars as about the childish incompetence of the national government (average age of Cabinet Ministers seems to be 19).
Words cannot express the humiliation felt by decent Englishmen at the craven subservience of Blair (and now Brown) to futile policies that put ordinary citizens in dire peril. So mis-educated is the America public that few have the courage and realism to understand the feelings of people who once were independent and are now no longer allowed to follow their own national interest.
Problem: the other lot are even worse, so where does that leave us? The Conservatives hate the EU and spend their spare time on their knees to extreme right U.S “think-tanks” (more tank than think).
