Tributes to David Cameron







Thunder Bolt

Silly old bat
Shouldn't have needed one - there should have been referendums on the Maastricht Treaty, the Single European Act, the Lisbon Treaty, etc. Then we'd have been out and settled long ago.

The general public couldn't understand the implications of the exit or remain question, let alone individual treaties.

I thought it was telling at the last PMQ's when having tended his resignation and in a rare moment of honesty he said "i can say these things now". It's a shame that he didn't feel like he could say what he really thought for the last 6 years.

I would like pay tribute to David Cameron by congratulating him on his choice of wife. Very well done.

There once was a Tory called Dave
With policies stupid and brave
He f***ed a pig's face
Dealt Boris an ace
And buggered off just like a knave

Should not have capitulated to the right by calling the referendum in a desperate attempt to stay in power/gain overall power by trying to stop his party faithful leaching away to UKIP.

We joined a Common Market - well before I could vote. Nobody has had a real say in the direction of the EU since. Labour lied about a referendum. Since I was first able to vote I've wanted a real say in the EU relationship - Cameron finally gave me that option. For all his many faults I'm grateful of that. To suggest voters are too stupid to be able to vote on such an issue suggests they are also too stupid to vote for a UK government. I know, let's stop voting altogether - we're too stupid to understand !

Perhaps we can't understand the implications of how we vote at General Elections either. Perhaps we should do away with General Elections too - just have the country run by a small unelected elitist group who don't like the result of the referendum? Oh wait a minute - better still! - why not just hand the whole thing over to Brussels?

I used to work with a women who voted Tory, because John Major looked like her brother in law.

Indeed. He f*cked up and f*cked up on an almighty scale. History will judge him on that primarily and his legacy will always be Brexit - however it now works out.

How badly he f*cked up can already be gauged by the rapidity with which May is already moving her rhetoric leftwards to try and distance herself from the Cameron-Osborne economic and political inepitude. Her speech ysterday was essentially a re-run of Ed Millibands greatest hits and would have been deemed pretty much 'far left nonsense' by much of the media had it been delivered by Corbyn.

I suspect it is all just words, but let's see...

Appreciate where you are coming from, but i really worry that half the population are just that.

With no due respect i think you have missed the point of having a representative democracy

The bloke is a laughing stock. Went into negotiations with Europe and got put in his place by unelected jobsworths then came back saying he got us a fantastic deal. Glad he's gone the useless toff.

Shouldn't have run away after the referendum.

He probably just felt he was doing the honourable thing by handing over the mantle to those brave, bold, strong heroes, those great leaders of the Brexiteers, King Boris, Lord Nigel, Empress Andrea, assuming they would be the best people to guide this country forward, what with all their meticulously worked out plans, grand ideas, and visionary minds. Sadly, he wasn't to know that that mantle would crumble and slip like sand through their fingers no sooner had they touched it.

Think I'd rather have "Dave's" legacy that the war mongering, over spending, wasteful pair of tw@t's that are Tony Blair / Gordon Brown
