to ask you what you think David Cameron means by "purring?"

[hugefatso]

I mean, it's not a very human noise.

Or does he just mean it metaphorically, like the Queen was very thankful and grateful for the news about the Scots?

The problem I have with DC is he sets off my inbuilt Twat Alarm and the ringing in my ears makes it difficult to concentrate.
But I took it to mean he's an oily slimeball who thinks he's "in" with the establishment and can get away with it because they're all friends.
I now have a Queen/George Galloway mash-up thing going on in my head that I can never unthink, and for that reason alone he should resign.

lbsjob87 that's what that bloody noise is

I think he needs some more diplomacy training. What a shiny faced slimy creep .

What a classless idiot.

Off with his head!

It proves he is a total total fool.

I would imagine it was used metaphorically.

I've heard the phrase used to describe men, so he is not necessarily being sexist.

He is obviously, a complete buffoon though.

Is it shiny or shiney?

Maybe im innocent but i thought it just meant she was pleased with the result. Its a turn of phase. I thought it was a sweet way to describe someone being very happy. (Wonders off to look in dictionary as possible new meaning of the word purring)

Shiny

I find this story difficult to believe. Why would he need to telephone her ?
I’m sure that the Queen would have already know the result. It sounds to me like he was just trying to make himself sound important by having telephone calls with the Queen.
It it's true then he's even more of a prat that I thought he was.

This reminds me of the time I found Cameron/Clegg sex fanfiction.

Conference the Queen and PM are in regular communication, either by phone or in person. I saw the footage on BBC breakfast news and his words are clear.

As DC is 'her' PM i'm wondering cheerfully if she could command 'orf with his head!' over this - repeating the PM/Queen conversations is apparently absolutely not done. He is an arse and just proves an expensive education doesn't buy respect, tact or dignity.

''The definition of relief is being prime minister of the uk and ringing up the queen and saying it's alright, it's ok. That was something ... she purred down the line.''

What an utter idiot. What is he on about? Embarrassed to have him as our elected leader.

"Conference the Queen and PM are in regular communication, either by phone or in person."

I am. of course aware of this. My point is that I can't believe that he rang her during the night or that she wasn't interested enough to listen to the radio early in the morning. She would have known before he rang.

Scottish First Minister Alex Salmond, who led the campaign for independence, told BBC Scotland: David Cameron has been prime minister for four years and he hasn't learned basic civility on not gossiping about what Her Majesty The Queen thinks, or doesn't think, to Michael Bloomberg, or anyone else for that matter

Go Eck, get him told what a muppet he is

I still can't believe we didn't vote yes to get out from under these clowns

Why on Earth would he say such a thing?
It's just so ridiculous.

I mean he is.

Serious George Galloway on BB flashbacks. Ugh.

He really is an arse isn't he? Looks like a buttock. Talks out of them.

People have to put up with this sort of shit all the time. Why should an unelected old woman be immune?

What an utter tit.

I can think of several posters on MN who would be better Prime Ministers than him.

Actually, scrap that. We'd all be better Prime Ministers than him.

DC is an uppity twerp who needs to be put back in his box. He is a public servant FGS, he can't talk about the QUEEN purring down the phone to him.

And yes to shiny shiny knob.

And to Cameron-Clegg sexy fanfiction. Jeez what next?

What sound do lizards usually make?

Thinking about it now i cannot imagine the queen 'purring' down the phone at all to anyone. About anything! Let alone to him about that. I get the feeling she is probably curt, professional and very much 'to the point' in her official calls.

He really was just talking utter bollox.

He IS an utter bollock

DC gives me the rage!

I would guess that he gives Her Maj the rage too...
