Bush and British Prime Minister Gordon Browne will sit down to discuss what progress is needed there before more British and U-S troops can return home.Bush remains deeply unpopular in England where the war in Iraq continues to draw protests.However the president in an interview last week insisted that Britain should not unravel the work of coalition forces by withdrawing troops too early.He says there should be no "definitive timetable" for troop reductions and that drawdowns "may not be warranted at this point in time." Bush began his trip with a tour of Windsor Castle and tea with Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip.In addition to Iraq he and Browne are set to discuss Iran, the Middle East and climate change.They will also travel to Northern Ireland before Bush returns to Washington. ___ ___, The Associated Press.
