Often those people who call certain rightwing policies "yank-brained nonsense" are completely uncritical about American influence on the left. So I'm skeptical that their anti-Americanism is motivated by British nationalism.
Farage and Reform represent subservience to a foreign power and can hardly be called British nationalists.
There are faint, overdue signs of life among the less compliant parts of the UK political class, but a seventy-year habit of submission to American interests doesn’t disappear overnight. Probably truer to say that, as things stand, no one is a British nationalist.
Interesting read. "We remain capable of achieving great things, but not of imagining them." - that's a line that sticks.
