PM courted by KP and Strauss

The love-in between Kevin Pietersen and David Cameron continues. As I reported last week, the PM waded into the row over the sacking of the England batsman, and now KP has changed his Twitter picture to this snap of the two of them in happier times.

Mr S doesn’t want to stunt this blossoming love, but he hopes that Pietersen is aware that his old captain Andrew Strauss was spotted on Friday hobnobbing at the Olympic Park velodrome during Cameron’s speech about the future of the union. A new twist to their rivalry.
