Spectator Anne McElvoy tries an ingenious piece of cultural analysis:
What do David Cameron, David Miliband, Nick Clegg, Yvette Cooper, Michael Gove and (just about) George Osborne have in common?

The trouble with this theory is that Cameron's closest connection with The Jam is that he used to be one of the Eton Rifles.
