British Conservatives Screw Up—Yet Again!
Go here to read Anatole Kaletsky’s perceptive analysis of how the British Conservative Party has screwed up—yet again! As an ex-patriate Brit and, in my mispent youth, a Conservative, I still follow British politics and had long been suspicious of David Cameron, who last Tuesday was elected leader of the Conservative Party. That's not to say I could muster any enthusiasm for his rival David Davis. Both Davids are enamoured of George Bush and his desire to project U.S. power in the Middle East. That said, at least Davis seemed to be more interested in the substance of policy and not as preoccupied with image.
