Nascent Drama

Cameron, 41, is riding high in opinion polls, including one published Saturday giving his party a 22-percentage point lead over the Labour Party, which is led by British Prime Minister Gordon Brown.
 
Cameron uses the 4-mile bicycle commute from his home in trendy Notting Hill to Parliament to highlight his party's commitment to green issues. But political opponents scoffed when it emerged Cameron had an official car ferry his paperwork to his office.
 
Cameron steered himself into more embarrassment earlier this year when The Daily Mirror published a video showing him running a red light and cycling the wrong way down a one-way street. Cameron apologized for the traffic violations.

The Department for Environment Food and Rural Affairs will take the Cornish Pasty Association's (CPA) application for Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) to Brussels.
 
If successful, only pasty makers in Cornwall that use traditional methods and recipes for the meat and vegetable snack will be able to use the trademark or "appellation controlee", barring copy-cat like products from branding and marketing their products as Cornish pasties.
 
"The importance of the Cornish pasty industry to the wider Cornish economy cannot be stressed enough," said Angie Coombs of the CPA committee.
