American prejudices about Europe rarely surface in headlines, but they are real, pervasive, and ingrained.
Quote by -Linda Colley
Both Conservative and Labour politicians in Britain are rather too fond of praising the relative 'classlessness' of American society and of urging their own people to emulate it. There is a certain falseness about such arguments, and also a certain hypocrisy.
Quote by -Linda Colley
Like the proverbial elephant in the room, American anti-Europeanism has loomed large for so long that few trouble to notice it.
Quote by -Linda Colley
Once conscription was introduced during the First World War, and once Britain's wars ceased being confined to the empire or to continental Europe and began seriously threatening our own shores and safety, it became much easier to denounce any anti-war agitation and argument as inherently irresponsible and unpatriotic.
