Today's Times reports on a Populus poll that confirms yesterday's tracker poll showing British views of America have improved substantially in recent weeks. The column also notes stronger support in Britain for a close relationship with the United States:
The number thinking that America is a force for good in the world has risen from 44 to 54 per cent since June 2006. Even more striking, the proportion believing “it is important for Britain’s long-term security that we have a close and special relationship with the US” has jumped by 22 points to 80 per cent.
