Conservatives take over in Britain

David Cameron is Britain’s new prime minister.  This was the result of a coalition between the Conservative party and the middle-of-the-road Liberal Democrats.  The Labour party is out of power for the first time in 13 years.  This is the first coalition government in Britain since Winston Churchill’s during World War II.
