The debt crisis of 1976 offers a vision of the blood, sweat and tears facing David Cameron

Telegraph
"Whether he relies on a sofa or a full Cabinet, a star chamber or even a focus group, the one lesson Mr Cameron can draw from 1976 is the one about leadership. Ultimate responsibility rests with the prime minister. What awaits him if he wins next year is an exhausting, ultimately solitary test of political will and stamina that, like Callaghan before him, could leave him feeling deathly before his first term is up."
