The Special Relationship - A One Way Street?

Putting to one side the bullshit about our lack of involvement in rendition, this news via the BBC highlights how little influence we actually have with America:

British concerns appear to have had no "material affect" on US actions in its "war on terror", the UK's intelligence and security committee has said.

The committee, which reports to the prime minister, was probing possible UK involvement in rendition flights.

It said America's "lack of regard" for UK concerns had "serious implications" for future intelligence relations.

That's right, we are performing endless fellatio for the US and are receiving acts of coprophilia in return. We just bloody love it.
