Obama onto Strasbourg

Obama also looked calm and confindent at the G20. He even joked in press conferences! Despite this he looks like he will need to work harder than the 'sofa' tactics he employed on German chancellor Angela Merkel. Strasbourg looks like more of a challenge and serious protests are brewing. All he needs is Daniel Hannan to give him a lombasting much like he gave to Brown.

Brown looking like a Superhero?

After watching Grodon Brown after todays G8 summit it is only worrying how calm and 'superheroesque' he looked, smiling and joking. He looked chuffed with his announcement and achievement in releasing $1.1 trillion into circulation. I have to say I am labour skeptic but Brown is day by day proving himself to be a shrewd diplomat on the world stage although his domestic policy is poor. The only problem with the stimulus package released is that ultimately it is not enough to kick start trade it jsut surpases the fiscal stimulus for the USA alone.
