“I remember seeing a Political cartoon of Uncle Sam and John Bull shaking hands across the Atlantic. The caption was...”WE Anglo Saxon nations have to stick together!””

A propaganda cartoon. They also had cartoons of Germans catching Belgian babies on bayonets.

Little known fact, in WWI the war to make the world safe for democracy, the German soldier could vote. The overwhelming majority of British soldiers could not. They get the right to vote AFTER the war.
