“Questions are never indiscreet: answers sometimes are” -- Oscar Wilde

Politics So Kate Moss apparently mistook David Cameron for a plumber. Here is the problem I have with the story as Cameron tells it and feel free to warn me to lighten up if you like.

On the one hand he's labeling Moss as stupid for not being able to recognise the Leader of the Opposition and of the Conservative Party which is hardly very discreet considering he's the Leader of the Opposition and of the Conservative Party and therefore taking the piss out of a potential voter then constituent or useful supporter.

On the other, he's essentially reminding people that even though he is the Leader of the Opposition and of the Conservative Party, he's not a recognizable enough figure yet that even celebrities know who he is. Either way it's enough to make us wonder if he's enough of statesman to be Prime Minister.
