Please correct me if I'm wrong, but as I understand it, the UK and France, who had worked together during the Suez Crisis, had wildly different reactions to the USA slapping down their Imperial Adventures.
In brief, as I understand it, the UK undertook to be as pro-American as possible, but France undertook to be as Anti-American as could be managed.
Is it possible for the UK, in reaction to Suez, to do what France did and 'draw back' from the American line, and attempt to maintain geopolitical independence (most likely in concert with France?) And if it's possible, what might the effects be?
