It's an abusive relationship, not very special. They hit you once, they'll hit you again; it's just a matter of when.
Sorry babes, it won't happen again.
Bollocks it won't.
Make your plans, get out.

I write this as the news announces at least 25 more killed in Ukraine: guess why.

You are exactly right. I grew up with extreme domestic violence.
The abuse only gets worse. After my parents divorced, he married 3 more times and was divorced for life threatening battery
He never got better. ABUSERS never do.

Time to acknowledge that there’s never been a Special Relationship with the USA. Invention of Churchill to get support during WW11. It took Pearl Harbour to bring them in 1942. Never backed us, Falklands, IRA, Expected blind support from us, Afghanistan, Iraq. Use us to legitimise US adventures.

It’s been a comforting fiction for years, effectively an occasional pat on the head from the US to keep the UK in line. The damage it has done to the UK has been to prevent us from even thinking of developing an independent foreign policy.

We have been deluding ourselves. Let's face it, America is not the land of milk and honey for American workers.
It's the land of no paid holidays and no workers rights, no health care, no sick pay.
Just what the right wing Farage and Co want here.

We deceive ourselves if we think we have a special relationship with the USA, and that's been the case from before Trump. The more so having split ourselves off from the EU.

High time. Under his leadership America had become a rogue state actively supporting Putin.

There is no special relationship to end. There never was. But the UK likes to think we're special.

With America as a whole. It's obvious that this wil become cycle now...Republicans come in and ruin relations, Dems return to power and fix them, Reps return to power to ruin relations again.
We and all NATO nations need to decouple from America but stick together.

Can we afford to? I would love to tell him to withdraw Am Troops from our soil, impose tariffs on Am goods before they do it to us because it will happen. If we did what would happen to the UK cut off from the EU with the most pathetic trade deals elsewhere? It would need more than govt approval.
