Tony Blair continues to insist that the US-UK 'special relationship' exists and is a two-way street. No-one is found to agree with him. Until this year the special relationship has always been that we are nice to the Americans because we owe them money for helping our economy survive after the Second World War. We've always had to act nice in case they call in the remaining money of the loans in one go. If you think you have a special relationship with the bank manager, just try defaulting on paying him and see how far it goes.

But now that's done with. If Blair had any sense he'd make an announcement on how we've finished paying back the money so now more money can be spent on hospitals, schools, ASBOs, muzzles for dangerous children. They don't seem to want that though. So where is the money going? The lawyers fees for the Cash for Peerages row?
