Cameronspeak
by Graham Davies

David Cameron's speechwriters have a real talent for creating memorable phrases that make headlines. Yesterday, he promised that a Tory government would not behave like "flint-faced turbo-charged accountants when it comes to public spending".

Striking? Yes. Understandable? No.

I am certain that the denizens of KPMG, PWC and their high-adrenalin brethren will not be impressed by Dave's take on their profession.

I think we have more to fear from baby-faced ambition-driven politicians when it comes to public speaking.
