I posted this in feminism but think this is appalling, if true.

CR; - shut up

CameronRocks - can I call you Cam?

Are you THE Mr Cameron himself?

Of course I am the man himself and you my call me 'Cam', sweet-cheeks. Do you mind if I call you sugar-tits?

QuelleLeJeff · 28/04/2011 14:45

Aw it's a shame really that CR's messages got deleted, I thought they really showed his caring side.

usualsuspect · 28/04/2011 14:46

Bless him

Animation · 28/04/2011 14:47

Cam - no, you may not call me sugar-tits.

He's the Oscar Wilde of Mumsnet and no mistake!

The fact that women whinge about this is very sad. Clearly it was supposed to be funny - the Michael Winner thing. It's not very funny but - posting it in feminism?! Crap joke alert I understand but women who feel insulted by this sort of thing shouldn't leave the house frankly.

LuckyWeKeptTheCot · 28/04/2011 14:52

PS I've only ever been called 'dear' by old women being kind. Michael Winner does it as a sort of elderly camp thing. Cameron is trying to sound with it by quoting an ancient shite advert. All that depresses me about it is the lack of wit in modern politics.

oh bit slow at seeing the groundhog day post Blush

QuelleLeJeff · 28/04/2011 14:57

I'm not allowed to leave the house actually, it's in case I get offended by something and say something out of turn.

Blackduck · 28/04/2011 15:00

Quite right too QuelleLeJeff......

LuckyWeKeptTheCot · 28/04/2011 15:01

Jolly good. I see you all recognise your acute over sensitivity and stay where you're nice and useful. Make sure your pinnies are straight dears, for when the lord and master comes home.

HalfPastWine · 28/04/2011 15:01

Can't believe this thread is still going.

Great wooden spoon you have CameronRocks. Where can I get one? :)

QuelleLeJeff · 28/04/2011 15:02

Will do Lucky! Thanks for validating me!

usualsuspect · 28/04/2011 15:02

You might get all faux outraged about something Jeff

LuckyWeKeptTheCot · 28/04/2011 15:02

Who is Angela Eagle anyway? Is that a made up name?
