Son’s Death Recasts Image of British Leader

The son of David Cameron, who is the leader of the Conservative Party and a candidate for Prime Minister, died at age six today. Cameron, who was thought by many to be too high-class and snobbish, has gained great public support for his attitude towards this sensitive issue. Instead of acting hostilely towards the media, Cameron has opened up his family life (including openly discussing his son's cerebral palsy) to the British public. The tragedy of his son's death has triggered a day of morning in Britain.
