Cameron leaves CHOGM early

The British Prime Minister David Cameron has left Sri Lanka ahead of the CHOGM gala dinner tonight and concluding sessions tomorrow. 

Leaving at 1pm local time on a British Airways special flight, Mr. Cameron landed in UAE a short while ago.

Tweeting on arrival, Mr. Cameron said he was there to "help boost British business and support Dubai's bid to host Expo 2020". 

Tamil sources close to the Conservative party however, told Tamil Guardian that his premature departure, missing the CHOGM gala banquet scheduled for tonight, was an intentional snub.
