More sombre mood this week, no doubt caused by relations with the USA, on and off pitch. I never understood why Brits imagine this big friendship thing with the US. All the baddies in Hollywood movies have always had upper class British accents since year dot. America;s view of Britain always was nuanced.
ReplyDeleteObama's grandfather was a Kikuyu Mau Mau fighter, tortured by the British. He has no problem in tapping into American dislike of Brits.
It's a love/hate relationship. We 'love' them, or is it their money, and their size. They hate us, apart from our accents and our royalty.
Actually Americans are just getting angry anyway with their economy. I am sure we are providing a good temporary scapegoat. It used to be France and Freedom Fries. Now it's our turn with Brutish Petroleum. It's our traditions they cannot stand. I mean how can a small island of then 20 million people have created the modern world. It's not fair. America just cannot compete with that, even with all her money.
