David Cameron left his eight-year-old daughter in the pub following a Sunday lunch, after a mix-up with his wife Samantha. The couple's daughter Nancy wandered off to the toilets while they were arranging lifts and they only realised she was not with them when they got home. According to The Sun Cameron rushed back to the Plough Inn in Cadsden, Bucks, where he found his daughter with staff. To be fair to the prime minister, with a troubled economy, unsettled backbenchers, plummeting poll ratings and the prospect of a whole day infront of the Leveson on his mind, he can perhaps be forgiven for being a bit absent minded.

It's like parents who give their newly licensed teenager keys to a car that they have purchased, only to snatch them away when the youngster's driving is deemed irresponsible. | | Richard Lloyd: The Chancellor Must Stand Firm on Banking Reform Amid Intense Bank Lobbying We've recently seen a series of u-turns from the chancellor on Budget measures including the controversial pasty, caravan and charities taxes. George Osborne says he is now focused on the biggest things that matter to the economy. Ahead of his annual Mansion House speech and the expected publication of the White Paper on the Banking Reform Bill on 14 June, we are calling on the government to stand firm on its banking reform commitments. Consumers should never again have to foot the bill for a banking collapse that required a bailout to the tune of £2000 for every man, woman and child.
