WikiLeaks cables: Conservatives promised to run 'pro-American regime'

[Peter Lemkin]

Conservative party politicians lined up before the general election to promise that they would run a "pro-American regime" and buy more arms from the US if they came to power this year, the leaked American embassy cables show.

Wot?

With Blair being Bush's poodle, and New Labour willing to sacrifice thousands of British troops to American imperial wars, what extra "pro-Americana" could the Tories possibly be offering?

Torture dungeons?

False flag attacks?

The Bank of England to buy massive amounts of American debt (aka Treasuries)? Oh, yeah, that's already happened.

Still, regime is an entirely correct word to describe the deep British state.

To me, hidden behind their peeing-in-excitement Poodle act is the assumption on their [Conservatives] part that the USG could have a secret or otherwise hand in the outcome of the elections!!! Why else play up to them before the election? The only other possible explanation [but I find it less explanatory of their actions] would to to curry favor and money afterwards - but similar statements and/or actions after winning would have gotten them the same. Sad to say, as I love the English language, that the English speaking countries are a very sad an immoral lot, for the most part.
