Oh gosh, me too. I think he's fundamentally a decent man but events are just running away with him. The thought of 10 years with David Cameron as PM is utterly sick-making.

GB is a fine human being but


a) He doesn't have some of the qualities for PM.

b) He has a tendency to surround himself with some fairly unpleasant individuals.

c) He has a love of complexity (cf pension credit etc.) I prefer simplicity, which everyone can understand. It is not fair that so many pensioners do not get a decent pension because of GB's introduced complexity. (And no, I'm not a pensioner.)

I don't by into this fundamentally 'decent man' bit by any stretch of the imagination...i see no evidence, he strikes me as pretty unpleasant to be honest


...he's often described as a politician from tip to toes which makes him SCUM ( ta Snorky) in my book.

He's made plenty of enemies

He doesn't look a team player at all

He accepts no blame

He doesn't appear to listen just 'tell'


These 5 alone account for many of the myriad mistakes his governemnt have made, in addition


He's hubristic

He doesn't really strike me as that 'clever' let alone intellectual

He's never done a proper job

He looks intent on holding on to his job at any cost to country, the economy, collegaes or his own health purely out of ego

He's chippy


I could carry on but basically he looks horrendously unsuited and out of his depth

I don't understand your dislike of David Cameron. We've had 12 years to assess GB and I think ????'s has made the point eloquently that he's flawed as a politician and as PM - I would add that his policies over the last 12 years have been for the worse rather than the better - his tendency to insist on Treasury control, his desire for micro management and set targets makes everything more complicated than it need be - and is a major flaw.


What exactly has David Cameron done - he's remodelled the Conservatives, developed a string of sensible policies, he is an eloquent and persuasive speaker that can think on his feet, he has proved he can take tough decisions quickly rather than procrastinate as GB does.

GB is directly or indirectly responsible fir most of our woes even if it was just a case of letting tony get away with stuff in the interests of his career.


I don't hold out much hope for cameron. A man who described himself as the real heir to Blair... Oh fuck.


The people around him don't strike me as particularly sharp either, just arrogant. We're basically doomed.

    • I was referring more to his performance at PMQs yesterday. It was quite a riot! Almost topped Mastermind  
    • Agreed, he should not be held accountable over the mess up over release of prisoners. On the other hand he did himself no favours with his gaffes on the BBC Master Mind programme where he passed on five questions. Where he did answer, here are some of his responses.... When asked who succeeded Henry VIII, Lammy incorrectly answered “Henry VII,” When asked which French scientist won Nobel prizes for both physics and chemistry?” Lammy responded with “Antoinette” When asked which fortress was built to defend Paris and later used as a prison, he answered “Versailles". When asked which variety of blue English cheese is often taken with port, he answered "Leicester" If nothing else he was entertaining.
    • Why do you think he should be toast? All these problems with the prison service apparently go way back, long before Labour took over.
    • Probably by working as a banker for a decade before being an MP, being married to another high earner, and using some of the accommodation allowance that all out-of-town MPs receive. https://www.theipsa.org.uk/news/why-do-mps-need-an-accommodation-budget Tbh mate if someone in her position couldn't work out a mortgage to buy a house in suburban London, they probably shouldn't be Chancellor in the first place...
