Humm, If he calls himself socialist, I think you should accept it at face value. If he is a socialist it would not automatically make him an enemy of the US, but it should concern the people of Britain. There is no reason that socialist and capitalistic countries can’t have friendly relations. Actually it’s quite fun to watch the daily Euro socialist follies.
We don’t hate socialists; we just think they are stupid for following a failed and foolish economic policy.
