What a humble prime minister ever in Britain

Bloomberg: U.K. Is `Junior Partner' to U.S., Cameron Says Before Visit to Washington

U.K. Is `Junior Partner' to U.S., Cameron Says Before Visit to Washington
David Cameron, preparing for his first visit to the U.S. as U.K. prime minister, said he sees Britain as America’s “junior partner.”
“Clearly the U.S. is a larger country,” Field said. “Its economy is five times the size of the U.K.’s as is its population. It has a larger army. We need to understand the dynamics of the relationship, and to understand our role. That’s the best way to bring our influence to bear.”

So as China and India are larger country, their economy is double that of UK and 20 times of UK’s population. They both have larger armies. UK needs to understand the dynamics of the relationship, and understand its role. Perhaps next time when David pay a visit to China/India would say the same thing as “junior partner of China/India”.

Is that a step up or step down from being America's 'bitch' under Labour?
