Spent power

It'd probably be a good idea if UK politicians and departments dialled down the rhetoric, and 'trimmed their cloth' the match the reality of where the country finds itself.

Bordering on being a financial basket case, a spent military power without its US "relationship", and getting close to having a non functioning government internally, the UK is hardly any sort power to be reckoned with anymore..

reality bites, me thinks..

buggered if I know :-P
