Politics and politicians - devoid of credibility and integrity.

He might have had more credibility if he had just come back from the EU negotiations (waving a bit of blank paper) and said "whaddyathink?"

However he didn't, but went and campaigned flat out to Remain. Strange he didn't announce his change of mind on home territory.

Or perhaps not.

Not quite what he said. He was saying that WE as a nation aren't keen on being ruled from afar. Having a flag that wasn't our own. A parliament that wasn't our own. He's not wrong. It's a cultural thing. Partly due the fact that in the last 700 years we've fought off various invaders. And partly cause we are an island.

Its the same mind-set that the Americans take even more seriously than the UK.


Why would you want to hear him?

He was the leader of one of the greatest countries in the world, for 6 years. Even if it all ended in ignamy (sp?) for him. he will have seen things that Politics students can learn from.

I'm pretty sure that Cameron will go down in history as one of the most stark examples of how to bks up a successful political career.

1) Promise things you can't deliver
2) Pretend to have delivered it
3) Call huge swathes of your voters thick and racist.
4) Offer those voters a chance give you a massive kicking.
5) Assume they won't take you up on the offer and make absolutely no plans for if they do.
6) Errrr

I would be interested to hear Cameron speaking openly and frankly about this, but I suspect in his corportatist politician style he will gloss over it and talk about the brilliance of his coalition government and how his reforms weren't properly understood.
