David Cameron
There's a nice letter in the D.Telegraph today:David Cameron in the steps of Hannay
Sir - Each time I hear David Cameron or read him in The Daily Telegraph, I am reminded of John Buchan's novel The Thirty-Nine Steps, in which the intrepid hero, Richard Hannay, blunders into an election meeting in a small Scottish town.
The organisers mistake him for their parliamentary candidate, and he is quickly thrust on to a stage to face a crowded auditorium of waiting constituents.
Our hero comes up with a lively speech, full of optimism and platitudes, that so enthuses his audience that they are soon cheering him on.
