"I cannot bring myself to believe that the British legal system is doing favours for the US political system. "
Sorry, cerhob, but the Brits, like us, are under the US thumb. From an article on the "leaks": "These comments outline who really calls the shots in Australia?s so-called parliamentary democracy. Labor leaders must understand ?what they need to do??that is, kowtow on every major strategic and foreign policy issue to Washington. They need to recognise that Australia is an obedient servant of US imperialism, and that its political superstructure must function accordingly." and
"Beginning at this time, the Fairfax press reports: ?US diplomats were anxious to establish Ms Gillard?s attitudes towards Australia?s alliance with the United States and other key foreign policy questions, especially in regard to Israel." http://www.globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=va&aid=22350
So, mate, Australia and the UK are but remote States of the US...... In fact, the only countries who arent subservient are on the list of "Axis of Evil"....
