Sitting on the bok of the day
He’s not an MP, so how can David Cameron return to the cabinet?
The former PM retired from the Commons years ago, but has still been appointed to one of the top ministerial jobs
Bit of an explainer here of this highly unusual situation.
Closest precedent seems to be Mandelson.

Cameron is widely hated by the tory right - so the greensil stuff may become a lot more prominent - especailly if the mail/express/sun start running with it ..
Would be hilarious if it forces him to resign - would make sunak look an utter fool.

Thing is, the media are already calling him “Lord Cameron”. So is he already a Lord without a magic ceremony? No sword wavy thing or magic screen to hide behind?He’s not an MP, so how can David Cameron return to the cabinet?

He's their 'statesman' that demands to be taken seriously. A 'can speak to camera' ploy (if you can stand it). The emperor has no clothes in that the government of the country is run under the steam of bluff and elite connections by hobbyist toffs with a skill for condescending arrogance and not much else.

It's the second 'Twat' he sneaks in at the end that gets me

I think you’re all being a bit mean to David Cameron…

Thanks for that. I enjoyed it greatly.

This is actually true though isn't it. That's not about being mean to Cameron, it's that 'look at the sort of gross posh boys we have in power, getting their kicks out of sexually humiliating each other' might at the time have had some sort of impact whereas 'LOL pig fucker' has had none whatsoever.

I remember Peter (Lord) Carrington serving as Thatcher's Foreign Secretary until the Falklands War when he resigned.He’s not an MP, so how can David Cameron return to the cabinet?

But h8s resignation was because FCO had dropped the ball rather than what colour leather he sat on
It was odd on LBC this morning. People calling the jumped up oik Lord Cameron while referring to the prime minister as Rishi.

well its given millions of us good old laugh at his expense - take your joys where you find them and all that.
Surely part of some Doctor Who anniversary Master/Harold Saxon/Prime Minister crossover story.

Lest We Forget ...
The Prime Minister paid tribute to the ‘Windrush generation’ and their contribution to modern Britain:
Prime Minister David Cameron said:
"The 65th anniversary of the arrival of the Empire Windrush at Tilbury Dock on 22 June 1948 marks a truly historical moment for modern day Britain. Nearly 500 people arrived from the Caribbean that day to find work or a new life, and it led to the transformation of this country into the richly diverse nation it now is.
"The early arrivals from the Caribbean came to help rebuild our country after the Second World War. They brought with them the skills and resolve to help get Britain back on her feet and to make a better life for themselves and their families. But as history has shown many of them suffered unjust hardships and barriers – from social exclusion and prejudice to discrimination and racism.
"I pay tribute to the Windrush generation and praise their fortitude and determination in overcoming those difficult challenges. Younger generations are rightly very proud of those early pioneers, and while some social issues still need to be tackled, I strongly believe that our country today is an overwhelmingly fair and tolerant one. And this is in part down to the people from the Caribbean and around the world who settled here.
"Those early migrants did so much for our country, and paved the way for their children and subsequent generations to make enormous contributions to Britain in the 21st century. Whether this is in the field of public service, business, culture or the arts, the children of the Windrush generation have given so much.
"Whenever I meet people from Britain’s African-Caribbean community, I’m always struck by the stories I hear. Stories of guts, determination and sheer hard work. Our island is richer in every sense of the word for your contribution."

If you took out all the posts referencing pigs, it would only just be on page 2.
I think ouirdeaux might be pointing out the fact that Piggate is complete bollocks. Michael Ashcroft was bitter about Cameron not giving him a seat in cabinet, and so he, with Isabel Oakeshott, wrote a revenge biography, where they made the pig story up. For some reason it was run with, despite being about as reliable as Dorries' imagination recently.

The reason being is it's funny as fuck.
Dorries’ imagination? It’s wonderful to hear how undemocratic the Tories are and all the evidence bears this out.

And HOW DO YOU KNOW it was made up?? Were you there when it didn't happen?
They literally briefed the newspapers to get out whoever they wanted including the Prime Minister. We know this as we watched it happen.
