摘要

Nobody doubts that the "special rela-tionship" between Britain and America is going through a rough patch. But is it, as Jack Straw, the foreign secretary, insisted this week, merely a question of one or two disagreements between friends? Or is it the harbinger of something more serious going wrong in a relationship that in the immediate aftermath of September nth seemed as close as at any time since the second world war? There is certainly no shortage of friction points. On trade issues, where the Bush administration was expected to be instinctively sound, the farm bill and the steel tariffs have caused profound disappointment. The president's refusal to listen to Tony Blair's repeated pleas at last weekend's G8 meeting in Canada to cut him some slack on steel was especially galling.
