Cameron's changing parting?

Danny Finkelstein has just posted suggesting that the side David Cameron parts his hair has changed. I'm not sure how this is possible though as parting are usually dictated by where your crown is and I'm pretty sure you can't have two crowns (can you?). My instinct tells me it's a straight "flip image" in photoshop.

Opinions?

Update: Apparently, there are freakish people out there with two crowns.

Update 2: Have done some digging, and he was on BBC News yestedray and it was not on a new side. However, ITV and the Standard both have pictures from yesterday's stories with it on the other. I'm still punting for mirror flip in a graphics package. I could be wrong though.

Update 3: Pointless observation. Let's assume he's changed it. He did part on his right, but from the front it appears on the left. Whilst Brown on the other hand parts on his left and from the front it's appears on the right. It's all in the body language oh yes!

Update 4: I have been reliably informed that the parting really did change side, plus a comment has pointed out a sort of mole thing that is on his chin in the same place on both pics.

Yes, you can have two crowns e.g. England and Scotland!! Har harr. Cork and Dubh Linh say.

But also on your scalp. And he also does a parting-less quiff version sometimes.

Yes too, you can override nature with strong gel and/or trick-ology.

Is Cameron loosing his hair along with his mind?

Is he going to shave his head to be more like his strange bouncer friends? Is he already bald and sporting various hair-sets to suit the occasion?

My son has two crowns and he is not a freak. Mind you, he's going bald now, like his father.

Rather more to the point, he seems a tad less wrinkled around the eyes in the right-hand picture - "some botox for the weekend, sir?"

As a humble photographer might I suggest that a hair stylist in the studio shot has flipped the parting to disguise the receding hairline.

The idea of flipping the image is credible - those in the know do it all the time to please clients who prefer the face they see in the mirror on a daily basis. But I think that this is not the case here, especially as it is a publicity shot

Photo seems to have been enhanced, more colour, more hair, less crooked nose etc. Looks younger and tanned

Not too concerned about the hair its the policies or lack of them that worry me. To think we've suffered the "Major Soapbox" years, the loss of Hague and this is what we get as a reward?
How do we get him to look at the immediate environment and the plight of British Farmers stared off the land they've guarded for generations?
Get him off the iceflows and pretending to dig in the allotment and onto a working farm to ensure Fair Trade for the British farmer.
Sorry to get all political but I cant find a Tory who cares and Country Living magazine cant do it all alone?
