President : It's
a great scotch !
Natalie : I'll, erm. I'll be going, then.
President : Er, Natalie.
I hope to see much more of you,
as our two great countries work toward a better future.
Natalie : Thank you, sir.
Prime minister : Yes，Peter.
Peter : Erm, Mr. President. Has it been a good visit?
President : Very satisfactory, indeed. We got what
we came for, and our special relationship is still very
special.
Peter : Prime minister?
Prime minister : I love that word "relationship".
Covers all manners of sins,
doesn't it? I fear that this has become a bad
relationship. A relationship based on the president
taking exactly what he
wants, and casually ignoring all those
things that really matter to... Britain. We may be a
small country, but we are a great one too. The country
of Shakespeare, Churchill, the Beatles, Sean Connery,
Harry potter, David Beckham's right foot, David
Beckham's left foot, come to that. And
a friend who bullies
us is no
longer a friend. And since bullies only
respond to strength, from
now onward, I'll be prepared to be much
stronger. And the president should be prepared for that.
