          I do have a bit of a clue about the world, the UK is not a vassal state of “the US Empire”. You’ve taken a goofy LARP that you’re some kind of revolutionary fighter up against an evil empire so far, that you’ve started to think your fantasy game is real.

              UK is entirely dependent on US for military protection, that’s a relationship of a vassal.

              That is not what a vassal state is. Where did you get your wrong definition for a vassal state?

                  The UK is not subordinate to the US. The US does not direct UK policy.

                  it relies on military protection from US

                  No, it doesn’t. The UK has its own military, and it’s own military-industrial complex. The UK is not at war. It’s in a co-operative military alliance, so if someone like Russia came to invade, the US would assist.

                  can’t have a sovereign and independent policy

                  The US does not give a shit about the UK’s policy. The UK can do what it wants.

                  You’re literally just making stuff up, this is like flat-earth level content.
