Mr Cameron ends a tumultuous political season buoyed by opinion polls that appear to fly in the face of logic: this is a leader who has just embarked on the UK’s biggest austerity drive for a generation, and yet his approval ratings have risen since he entered Downing Street on May 11. His aides say he is “loving” the job. “What looked a little like arrogance in opposition works really well as prime minister,” says one.
— David Cameron, wonder boy. At least for the polls. At least for now. Image is stronger than austerity.
