...realize there's a contradiction in that. Unlike the vast majority of critics, I don't want to affect people's opinions. Take a George Will column or a Maureen Dowd column. I don't see either as having any benefit whatsoever to anyone. I think they're actually trying to stop people from thinking critically. I'm interested in hearing every side to an issue, but it's strange when somebody seems to be working from a position of certitude. It bothers me how - and now more than ever - that's rewarded by the media. When I got into...

Cameron doesn't deny his past, but he's keen not to dwell on it either, even though the politics of envy - once a potent weapon for Labour - has lost traction. That was the cheering message Tories could take from their May by-election victory in Crewe and Nantwich, a constituency in northwest England.
