Earlier today I watched the (always excellent) Sunday Politics on BBC1.
The programme included a discussion about the G8 summit to be held in Northern Ireland.
So far I have not heard anyone remark on the PR coup by the Prime Minister in holding this conference in British Ireland.
The great leaders of the world are coming to meet the British Prime Minister in Fermanagh. In Fermanagh in the former IRA badlands. Fermanagh that once elected hunger-striker Bobby Sands as a Member of Parliament.
This is what triumphalism looks like.
If Edith Wharton were alive today she would say that David Cameron knows how to teach people a lesson.
