Trans-Atlantic tourette’s syndrome

The behaviour of David Cameron and President Sarkozy in Libya yesterday was embarrassing.

It seems that our increasing obsession with all things American has resulted in our politicians being infected by ‘trans-Atlantic tourette’s syndrome’ - tendency of premature and uncontrolled celebration (for example the George Bush claim of victory in Iraq).

I still believe that traditional British understatement wins whatever the victory.
