    Why is Starmer letting this dreadful plan for a state visit to the USA go ahead?

    Quite aside from the potential with Trump for embarrassing incidents, a royal presence in Washington will appear to endorse this terrible war.

    A bad deal for the UK, as drug prices will be forced up.

    Pharmaceutical companies hate the bargaining power that the NHS enjoys because of its centralized purchasing system and will be delighted to see the UK government buckle under the US attack.

    The zero tariff agreement - even if the the Trump administration keeps its side of the bargain - will benefit corporations rather than patients.

    A bad day for the National Health Service and for the UK as a whole. A bad day for other countries too, as the Trump administration will certainly take this as a sign that bullying works when it comes to drug pricing.🙁

    In the USA, the War of 1812 has been seen as a triumph for the young republic, with Andrew Jackson's victory at the Battle of New Orleans setting the US commander on the road to national pre-eminence, ensuring the independence from European powers of the US itself, and igniting in the hearts of the US citizenry a patriotic flame that has never since been entirely extinguished.

    Cooler heads note that the as far as the UK and the US were concerned, the provisions of the 1814 Treaty of Ghent restored the status quo ante. Any "decisive victory" of the US figured more in the American imagination rather than the military realities.

    The US stamp from the Cold War era does its best to combine a celebration of the US victory at New Orleans with an assurance of the Atlantic alliance with the sometime enemy.

    In other parts of North America....

    18 June 1812 saw the United States declare war on Britain.

    Today the war is barely remembered in the UK; if it receives any notice, it is usually as a sideshow to the Napoleonic wars.

    This lack of attention stems in part from the resolve of successive British governments in the 20th century to minimize unnecessary friction as they sought to maintain good relations with the USA.

    This willed forgetting trickled down into the larger British culture.

    Yet, as can be seen from this 1909 illustration of the arms of the Ross-of-Bladensburg family, the war was not consigned to oblivion in the century following its 1815 conclusion.

    Robert Ross was the Anglo-Irish commander of the forces that in 1814 defeated the Americans at Bladensburg in Maryland and then marched into D.C, where they set fire to the White House and the Capitol.

    (I have no idea why a circumflex has been placed over the E in the illustration.)

    In North America, the war has been remembered very differently...
