Britain needs independence from America

Excerpt:
Opponents of the war in Iraq get daily vindication that the invasion was a terrible mistake. Supporters of the removal
of Saddam feel betrayed by the appalling mess Bush has made of the aftermath. Blair is an increasingly lonely voice
when he pleads that Britain and America must remain each other's indispensable allies. 'We shouldn't give that up in
any set of circumstances,' he declared last week. 'The relationship with America is what opens lots of doors everywhere.'
He did not make his case more persuasive when he selected climate change as an example of what he had got out of his
closeness to George W Bush. When he leaves Number 10, his successors will have to fashion a new foreign policy for
Britain which recasts its relationship with America and reorients its approach to the rest of the world.


Bush is poison.
Anyone who stands with Bush will be judged harshly by history - and the voters.
