Just in case you didn’t hear about this, allow me to present Britain’s newest Prime Minister, Mr. David Cameron, a Conservative from the Margaret Thatcher School of Governance.

While it is important that our Nation once again secures solid leadership, let us not forget that Britain is  one of our biggest allies, and their success is something we should root for.  (Well, in my opinion, that is!)  Can you imagine if both of our Nations had Conservative leadership?  Hmm.  Like Reagan and Thatcher, yes?  Those were the days, indeed!

Congratulations, Mr. Prime Minister.  You have a lot of healing to bring to your Nation.  Best of luck, sir, and God Bless!

LONDON – David Cameron, the youthful leader who modernized the party of right-wing icon Margaret Thatcher, became prime minister Thursday after the resignation of Gordon Brown — capping a gripping election saga that returns the Tories to government after 13 years of Labour Party rule.

According to tradition, Queen Elizabeth II appointed Cameron at Buckingham Palace — the stately denouement to a behind-the-scenes dogfight between Cameron and Brown for the cooperation of Britain’s third-place party, after an election that left no party with a majority. Within minutes, Cameron was installed at No. 10 Downing Street and an announcement followed that Liberal Democrat leader, Nick Clegg, would become deputy prime minister after days of hard bargaining with his former political rivals.

The 43-year-old Cameron becomes Britain’s youngest prime minister in almost 200 years — the last was Lord Liverpool at 42 — and cemented a coalition deal with the third-place Liberal Democrats. Clegg and four other Liberal Democrats received Cabinet posts. A number of other Liberal Democrats would receive junior posts.
