It drives me mad how the UK media obsesses over US Presidential elections because they're still pretending the "special relationship" exists, yet they pay hardly any attention to European elections that actually have more impact on the UK.
They'll literally cut away from UK news to bring a campaign speech from Trump or Harris. Why? We don't get a vote in it, so we don't need to hear it.
We gotta pretend we give a shit about your crowns and all that, so I don't want to hear it.
Lol no you don't
Well, talking about the EU might remind the rubes how shit things have gone since Brexit, so of course they don't want to bring that one up.
It's only fair, the US does the same shit with UK royalty.
