    yes, because by all accounts the UK benefits enormously from access to US intelligence, something that the vast majority of nations never engage in as a routine and comprehensive activity, because it requires a significant level of trust.
    A significant level of trust?
    Do you trust unreliable information?

    you can sit here, citing individual examples of poor information as evidence that the intelligence relationship is valueless and at the same time have zero comprehension of the torrent of information that flows between the UK and the US............... amazing.

    i cannot quantify that flow either, but i trust that it is significant from what i have understood. if you have come to a different conclusion good for you, but i disagree.

    Awsome, you can sit their Tribe's stating facts, but the bollocks of the matter is, I have to disagree with them for no logical reason other than it can't be true.

    do you believe that we get access to us intelligence that we would not otherwise have access to?

    if yes, would you like to put a price tag on the value of that intelligence if we had to get it ourselves?

    stop talking nonsense.
