US files describe UK 'paranoia'

breaking news

Files newly released by the Wikileaks website highlight what is described as the UK's "paranoia" about its so-called special relationship with the US.

In one cable, a senior US diplomat describes "excessive UK speculation" after Barack Obama became president.

"This over-reading would often be humorous, if it were not so corrosive," says the cable, reports the Guardian.

The cables detail efforts by leading Tories, who are now in government, to stress their pro-US credentials.
