Your Verdict On Cameron As Pm

[sp1814]

What do you think about his Premiership?

I would rate him 7/10.

To me, he was what I call 'a good Tory'. Genuinely felt sorry for him the day after the Referendum. I'm personally happy that Tezza May has taken over as she represents the type of Tory who seems modern and forward-looking.

How do you feel about David?

A nice man with a very good gift for speaking, but ultimately out of his depth: "pumped himself up" with one gamble too many: calling the referendum on the EU which he seemed to think he could win, despite the fact that he must have known he'd never get the deal he boasted about.
Was probably the only Prime Minister in history to be faintly appalled to win a clear majority at a General Election. Instead of having a few sensible Lib Dems to buffer him, he ended up having to go it alone against the gyro-opticals with a wafer thin majority and of course had nowhere to park his referendum plans.
I suspect though that compared to the looming disaster that is the May administration, that he will, for all that, be seen in a favourable light.

Really? Wait and see.

I am sure Theresa May is the best available person. In itself maybe not a hugely reassuring thought.
Tho I suspect that that is an irrelevance. The task may well be beyond anyone. David Davis as Secretary of State for Brexit though? We are living in surreal times
We could have had Stevie Crabb as Secretary of State for Sextit. That would have been fun :-)

An inspired choice. The lady means business.

[ichkeria]

It's definitely inspired :-) By what though .... (!)

May was a reluctant remainer. As a senior cabinet member she did not want to be seen rocking the boat and destabilising her boss. Now she's the boss she can give it free rein.
