It would be highly unusual for the UK to do something like that without consultations with the US ahead of time. Normally, the UK would send the US a diplomatic note through our Embassy or the PM would pick up the phone and call the President. Having said that they may have advised us that this is what they were doing, not "consulting" with us. I'm sure if we knew about it, we would have objected, but that doesn't mean that they would have changed what they had decided to do.

But, keep in mind, the current PM of the UK has a "mandate" from the British people to break away from the dealings of the past, so maybe this is our new relationship with them. There could also be a shake up within the UK government.

Either way, it's not good.
