The US will never see the UK as anything but it's "51st state", it's sidekick li'l bitch. May weasling up beside Trump is utterly pathetic, and the very people who talk about the UK being subservient to the EU seem to be all for it . Not happy to play underdog to the EU but perfectly happy to get on all fours and display our pink little rump to Daddy Trump. Why? Do you think Britain is strong and can stand alone or not?? Decide! PLEASE.

Standing alone doesn't mean cutting all ties with your allies(including the countries of the EU).Trade has to be done and deals have to be done.
The EU is also going to have to work with Trump aswell.All countries who want to trade with the US are.We may not like him but he does look much more favourably on the UK than Obama did.If he's offering us a good deal and telling us that we're at the front of the queue we would be fools not to take advantage of the situation.
I'm sure Theresa May isn't fond of him either but she seems to be acting professionally and getting on with the job.She's been to other countries aswell as America.It's only going to put us in a stronger position during Brexit negotiations.
We don't have to be Trumps bitch to do a trade deal with the US.Theresa seems like a strong leader so far and i can't see her getting pushed around by Trump or getting dragged into anything she doesn't think is in our best interests.

So you think standing alone means not having relationships with any other nations? What a weird perspective you have TS.

Please don't post things about little pink rumps, I now have a mental image of Nicola Sturgeon I never wanted to see.

Of course we need to have trade deals... I just find it fascinating that people who are so terrified of "EU overlords" are perfectly happy to see their precious Bwitain sold off piece by piece to US based privatisation.

Pretty much, it highlights the fact that Brexit wasn't so much about escaping EU's 'Tyranny' as Leave voters would have us believe as it was about that other major issue that defined the referendum....

Doesn't apply in any way to the post you just quoted LT. You need to click "back" and then select another one of your stock phrases.

You see, the referendum happened in what is now called the past, that means it's already happened. This stuff about a deal with the US and how it's kind of hypocritical for Brexit voters to want us to be Trump's bitches yet oppose us being in the EU because they don't want us to be the EU's bitches is happening in what's known as the present.

Your comment suggested that I was making predictions for something that hasn't happened yet, that's called the future.

Taking a fact from the past and present to make a statement doesn't really make it a prediction for the future but that's okay, I'm sure some other people struggle with the concept of time too
