Wow that's pretty leftfield on Cameron

I’d never thought I’d be hoping for Gove to be Home Secretary.

I didn't think I could hate the Tory government any more than I did. Cameron is responsible for so much that's wrong right now.

Me too. Shows just how bad it’s got.

the smell of desperation

Longtime lurker on these threads - thanks all for being informative and often making me laugh! Delurking to ask what's probably a really thick question - doesn't someone have to be an MP to be part of the cabinet? And unless I missed something Cameron isn't anymore?

Same here I’m beginning to think I’ve gone completely bonkers.

Can they put someone who isn't in government into the cabinet?
It shows how bad things are if they don't have enough competent MPs to staff their roles. Really he needs to call a GE

Cleverly backed Johnson and Truss. Obvious choice to restore faith in the Tory party 🤣

Pretty much jogged back from the school run, breathlessly checking in!!

Oh god it's insane

According to BBC they have to be MP or member of House of Lords - and that's just administrative, David Cameron could be made a Lord very quickly.

Yes if they're in the HoL.

He will be made a Lord today if needed @TheOnlyMrsW

Cleverly Home Sec

Yes, Sky seems to think they'll make DC a Lord, then make him FC & Cleverly HC, wish I'd had £10 on that, I don't think anyone saw it coming!!

He isn't in the HoL though is he??? And they can't just make someone a lord can they?

This would be completely ridiculous. And what's in it for DC?

Surely Starmer could go for VONC soon?

I think it's inspired by Rishi Sunak to get Cameron back in. Whatever you think of him and his politics, he has the experience and the connections/relationships to deal with Biden and Netanyhu and the rest of them.

This is the final clear out of all the ERG people. All gone

Apparently they can, quickly make you a Lord and then give you any job they want, what on Earth?!

DC will probably be in Tel Aviv by this evening!

They just said on BBC1 it only takes a signature by the King.

To be honest DC as FS is a good option, maybe rishi can get Ken Clarke, Rory Stewart and Ruth Davidson back too. We can just pretend the last 7 years never happened
Ffs.

How totally fcking random, might be genius, might be 'remember that ridiculous time when...'

I think actually it is the first thing I have seen Sunak do which is inspired

Or as the BBC man just put it, Cameron has "diplomatic heft".
