I saw a statement in a forum saying that what David Cameron has been saying in the media is nothing compared to what Jonathon Ross says on every show. Good argument except... as far as I recall Jonathon Ross is not attempting to become the next leader of our country. He is a mildly amusing light entertainer. David Cameron, on the other hand, wants to steer the country. So perhaps their behaviours should not be compared.
Comparisons should be made with say, Angela Merkel, Barack Obama, Nelson Mandela and let's add Gordon Brown for good measure. All accomplished diplomats with a rounded view on how a country's affairs should be organised.
Can you imagine any of those four people mimicking a German SS officer when discussing ID cards? Can you imagine any of those four people swearing on national radio? (twice) Can you imagine any of those four people being ridiculed for their lack of diplomacy? Let's not forget the 'lightweight' label either. This guy is seriously flawed but I still suspect we, as a collective, are going to be stupid enough to put him in the hot seat.
I would suggest you start worrying in earnest when you see David Cameron stand in front of the doorway at No10 because every Chancellory of every major nation thinks that when it comes to economics in the credit crunch, Gordon Brown got it right. His economic prowess is admired throughout the G8. He thinks the conservative 'solutions' are naive and unworkable. I would agree if I knew what the hell those 'solutions' were.
See you down the passport office.
