The House of Cameron

David Cameron is using his favourite housing metaphor again.

The political truce declared while the banking and financial crisis raged is now over (though the crisis smoulders on). Cameron and Brown have resumed hostilities. In a speech today, the Tory leader attacks 'the complete and utter failure of Labour's economic record'. He is quoted as saying 'it was right to man the hoses when the house was on fire, but it's now also right to see who built the house'.

Well, Thatcher was the builder, and the architect. New Labour have merely added an extension.
