    phrase ‘special relationship’ used by Winston Churchill illustrates the strong political, economic, historical and diplomatic relations between Britain and the USA.

Nonetheless, Stockwell states that Eden damaged this important relationship between the Britain and the USA by colluding secretly with Israel and France and by resorting to force in the absence of sanction from the United Nations. When Macmillan intended to cope with the financial problem, he realised the fact that Britain no longer has a ‘special relationship’ with the USA. Though this Anglo-American relationship deterioration was repaired to some extent by Macmillan, it did not recover fully. Considering the above, it appears to be that the British government did not completely understand the importance of the ‘special relationship’ with the USA and Britain made light of the significance of…

It's not like he's been doing anything wrong lately, if anything he's been looking for Akna these last few days and he hasn't seen a trace of her. He's stuck to his story that he's still trying to find scrap metal and maybe the occasional scavenge but he hasn't shared anything else. "You leave here everyday at the same time and hardly ever…

    However I do not agree that we can credit the Labour governments for these social laws. Many have supported the argument that the Labour government failed to take a leading role in change, but were instead reactionary to wider social and cultural trends. Supporting this fact is that the laws were not openly discussed in parliament originally, but were instead were private member bills; and had it not been for Roy Jenkins continuous backing in pushing for the time for a full debate in the House…

He had put together a creative and intriguing play, having actors stay spontaneous and interact with the audience, therefore no parts would be found boring nor dry. All the actors had held up their end of their roles quite well, by fully disguising themselves as that character they were suppose to be during the entire play. …

    A Fading Friend but Not Forgotten When I was a kid, I was a social and outgoing kind of person. In Kindergarten, I met a friend named Jeremy.

My father was hit by a drunk…
