AIBU to be absolutely shattered that the new PM is younger than I am. (Only just).

It's a very weird experience. My whole life,people in authority have always been older than I am.

Not only are they both 43, their looks aren't a million miles apart and they seem a similar height and build. Looking at this photo, I think the morphing process is well underway...

They are Borg. Call the Federation.

The Guardian has changed the photo! (the Borg recognition antennae must be twitching). Similar (but not as good as) photo is here:

Pfft, he's 15 years older than me.

He's only 4 months older than me!!!! First it was popstars, then the teachers now politicians are over taking me!!

Well, he's 14 years older than me (sorry), but what alarms me is that my first baby is due this July and they're having a baby in September - which means that I will have a child older than that of the Prime Minister. Now that's scary!

Thanks Downdog, feel much better now.

It's true though, give him 12 months as PM and a new baby in the house and he will look decidedly haggard
