The New Man In Number 10

The good-looking David Cameron has been installed as the new PM for Britain (the youngest British PM in almost 200 years!) with the equally dishy Nick Clegg of the Liberal Democratic Party announced as his deputy (Clegg is only three months younger than Cameron). One is an Etonian and Oxford graduate (first class honours in Philosophy, Politics and Economics, no less!), while the other is a Cambridge graduate. What a combination. If looks and academic qualification are anything to determine my vote, I’d vote for either of them too. No contest. Go here for Cameron’s full statement and here and here for his profile. Goodbye Gordon Brown, the longest-serving chancellor but one of the shortest-serving PM.

In other news, Noynoy Aquino is close to winning the Philippine election. And Costa Rica has inaugurated Laura Chincilla as its first lady president on Saturday. Busy month for election, eh?

The official website of the Russian player in number 10 (also Arsenal’s number 23) has issued this statement with regard to his interview with a British magazine.

And my man in number 4 (and Spanish footballer number 10), also the king of assists, has been included in Spain’s 30-man preliminary squad for the World Cup ;) Here are more pictures of him at the Emirates on Sunday. Oh, and items on the auction block at the Arsenal World Ball last week included dinner with Orlando Bloom for which Cesc made the highest bid – as a gift to his sister. Awww... why don’t I have a brother as generous as that?
