      I’m not sure who wins in a battle or cutting off their economic nose to spite their face in the ring between ignorant, manipulable racists in the UK vs. the US. Truly a bout for the ages, going 10 rounds for sure.

          Technically, France is more daddy to the US. Given its France they turned to when separating from the UK. We’re more of the laudanum addicted mummy, blaming them for the fact we got old and ugly.

            France was just the new legal guardian. The UK was the abusive father that had child protective services called on them.

              Ah so France is the US stepdad.

              And suddenly a lot of modern porn makes more sense.
