UK’s Cabinet chief lambasts ‘incredibly difficult’ Obama team over G20

As if the 25 NTSC DVDs (for PAL dvd players) and plastic helicopters weren’t bad enough. From the Times Online:

Britain’s most senior civil servant has complained that Downing Street is finding it “unbelievably difficult” to make arrangements with the United States for the crucial G20 summit.

Sir Gus O’Donnell, the Cabinet Secretary, reportedly said that the handover to the Obama Administration was hindering discussions about the meeting in London next month.

The Prime Minister hopes that the summit on April 2 will produce a co-ordinated global strategy to tackle the economic downturn.

So far, his attempts to get his Washington and European allies to agree to a coherent common platform for the meeting have proved frustrating.
