On Kindle "If Only They Didn't Speak English". It's the BBC Washington 
Correspondent's attempt to explain what happened in November 2016. His 
thesis is that we Brits need to regard the USA as a foreign country with 
strange systems and structures rather than as a cousin "separated by a 
common language". From my own travels in the USA as well as reading 
reports about what is happening there I think he has a valid point. We 
do not start from the same point and have radically different structures.
