Their colonies is a much longer list with a lot of nations with good reason to hate them. These are the ones where the colonizers maintained majorities over the indigenous peoples. They never even rejected the monarchy.
It may be worth noting that this is in The Telegraph, occasionally referred to as "The Torygraph", a nickname earned for being the slightly less rabid, but still very much right-leaning newspaper. "Tory" being used in the pejorative sense.
In that newspaper, the thought of the UK being untrustworthy or that Brexit was a bad idea must be carefully skirted at all costs. Then again, that seems to be government policy no matter who the government is these days.
The UK might not be able to trust the US but they should be taking advantage of current events to leverage their relatively better trading position, compared to most other nations, to score some solid economic gains. Trump is likely to overlook the UK because the Pound isn’t a threat to Dollar supremacy like the Euro.

After Brexit, I'm not so sure the problem is who can Britain trust, but rather who can trust Britain.
Lol, they only trust what used to be their colonies.

There is only one way to use that word: perjoratively.
This is the way.

Me too, but Trump is trying to destroy it with tariffs.

It’s Australia, New Zealand, and Canada.
Crazy that none of them is from Europe.
It’s because all three are part of the Commonwealth.
Well, that arricle seems to be from 1939.
/s
Because it’s the Torygraph and they are a bunch of Brexit arseholes.
Can we get Turks&Caicos in there? We’d love them to join us, but we wouldn’t want to dangle it like some economic prize.
Good thing they didn’t say Fr*nce!
Poor New Zealand always being ignored.
CANZUK when?
Today?
I like the idea of closer ties with Canada and the UK, we already have very close ties with Aus.
As a Canadian, free migration, even just to live in NZ for a couple years, sounds like a dream.
Welcome, and bring the syrup.
I would look to expand it to other countries in the future, in an EU style free movement of citizens type of arrangement.
The 3 countries:
Fuck northern Ireland apparently.
I thought it would be France.
This is all fluff. We are militarily so entwined with Britain you’ll suck our dick and say thank you.
There’s no way England made that list.
Britain doesn’t even trust Britons.
