LONDON (May 11) — David Cameron was this evening named Britain’s new prime minister by Queen Elizabeth II, less than an hour after Gordon Brown resigned as the country’s leader. Cameron’s appointment marks the end of 13 years of rule by Brown’s center-left Labour Party, which came second in last week’s general election to Cameron’s center-right Conservatives.

Standing outside No. 10 Downing St. with his wife, Samantha, Cameron, 43, paid tribute to his predecessor.

“Before I talk about [the] new government, let me say something about the one that has just passed,” the Conservative leader said. “Compared to a decade ago, this country is more open at home and more compassionate abroad, and that is something we should all be grateful for. And on behalf of the whole country, I would like to pay tribute to the outgoing prime minister for his long record of dedicated public service.”
