Cameron out Bushes Bush

We all remember that wildly (un)successful education initiative of Bush's first term known as "No Child Left Behind". Well in today's Observer Tory upstart and boyish leader David Cameron promises to go him one better by ensuring in the new warm, compassionate, caring Tory Britain that he dreams about no one at all will be left behind. What a noble ambition I say!

Unfortunately I think it is going to have to remain an ambition. The population is around 60 million but it is only 874 miles from Land's End to John O'Groat's. If we all line up in one row we will all only get about an inch. There is going to have to be several rows which, unfortunately for young David, will mean that someone will get left behind.
