Cameron steps up.

It would be something of an understatement to say that I have not been David Cameron's biggest fan. I have often found him to be a bit frothy and am sufficiently ideological that I do not consider poll ratings to be sufficient to justify anything.

The past few days however have seen Mr Cameron come into his own. At a time when the British government have dithered over what should be an easy call, Cameron has acted decisively and unequivocally. In flying to Georgia and stating his support for them so categorically, he has planted the Tory Party firmly on the right side of the argument.

The contrast between Cameron going to the scene and Brown and Miliband's dithering and mealy mouthed response is striking. Keep it up "Dave", you might not be so bad after all.
