David Cameron moving on towards 'New Tory"

Since taking over Number 10, Prime Minister David Cameron has made huge shifts from traditional Tories. He is trying as far as possible to get down to the people and experience their daily experiences. He is proving to be 'New Tory' who have parted from what Tories used to be, his government has taken significant steps to appear as a 'People's Government'.


It's sure no joke running a government with a hung parliament but he is seen to be working very hard towards the betterment of the UK and her people. Much has to be done especially the economy and certain EU agreements in the past which has not gone down well with the British public. He will faced must obstacles especially when Labour's gets their new leader soon and David Miliband is seen as the most favoured to lead Labour and drive her back to victory.


I believe that David Miliband would be one of the greatest threats to David Cameron's reign at Number 10. The future is yet unknown but it's definately not going to be a smooth journey for David Cameron. The people's expectations and demands on him are much higher while he faces Labour in parliament. As for now, the British Pound is steadily slipping and it's doesn't show any positive signs ahead.



BBC - Downing Street has described as "ridiculous" suggestions David Cameron is risking his safety after being photographed walking to work.

The prime minister has decided to dispense with motorcycle outriders for his official car and was pictured walking between government buildings.

A spokeswoman at Number 10 said there was "very high security" at all times.

She said the new PM is conscious of security and "would not take wild risks".

She added: "The prime minister does try to get outside when he can, but wouldn't do something which would endanger his safety."

Mr Cameron was photographed last week in his official car, stuck in traffic and without police motorcycle outriders, and walking in Westminster surrounded by tourists.

Downing Street said he would cope with traffic as the public do, but outriders may be used for occasions such as state visits, or amid security concerns.

At the time, Andy Hayman, the former head of anti-terrorism at Scotland Yard, said the decision is misguided.

Last week he told the BBC Radio 4 he understood the prime minister "wants to have no fuss", but the outriders were needed in the event of an attack so that they could get him away from the scene quickly.
