Conservative leader David Cameron has said he will be as radical a social reformer as Margaret Thatcher was an economic reformer.
In a book about him due out on Monday, Mr Cameron pledged to heal what he called Britain's "broken society".
Glad to see Boris Johnson, Conservative mayor of London is backing DC to the hilt - or is that the hilt in his back.
"If you believe the British press, the youth of today is aimless, feckless and hopeless, addicted to their PlayStations, lacking in respect and lacking in the emotional discipline needed to cope with a big match occasion.
"If you believe the politicians, we have a broken society, in which the courage and morals of young people have been sapped by welfarism and political correctness.
"And if you look at what is happening at the Beijing Olympics, you can see what piffle that is. Do not adjust your set: that really is a collection of smiling, well-balanced young British people, giving pleasingly self-deprecating accounts of how they have managed to haul in medal after medal after medal."
