Cameron Rules Britannia

Personally, I had ben hoping for Labour win that would bring a Tory crackup with the rump of the party being folded into UKIP with Nigel Farage as the leader in a repeat of what happened with the Canadian conservatives. Oh well.

Cammy has a majority government and so we'll see if he's the wanker we think him to be.

Interestingly there have been three important elections in the last six months, Britain, Israel and the U.S. midterms, the conservatives won handily in all three. In all three, the conservatives were not predicted to win so handily. The government of Australia went conservative in 2013 as well.  We seem to be in a new era where conservatives are winning elections across the English speaking world. Canada has elections soon as well, so we'll see if he can make it a clean sweep for the conservatives in the Anglosphere.
