Or am I just old fashioned in thinking a line of one sort or another has been crossed if it is true?

You're right.

I think everyone should have what they did at Uni added to their CVs forever.

It'd certainly lower the applicant to job ratio.

I find it hard to get worked up about something someone did as a youth, and have certainly seen much worse.

Ask medical students what they get up to with cadavers for pranks.....

I am more amazed that people happily voted for him and his Bullingdon chums knowing that they burned a £50 note in front of a homeless person.

There are youthful high jinks, and then there are acts which truly reveal what kind of person you are.

Given the ridicule Ed Milliband got for merely eating a bacon sandwich, it's hardly surprising Cameron's Full English is attracting so much publicity. Of course there are going to be jokes and puns. Ridiculous to expect anything else.

The only thing he can do is to maintain a dignified silence - as dignified as he can manage under the circumstances - until the next public figure of fun turns up.

'Ask medical students what they get up to with cadavers for pranks...'
I don't know what sort of medical students you've been speaking to but when I was at medical school the cadavers were treated with respect and not one student in my year of over 100 would have considered using them for pranks!

Andrewofgg · 24/09/2015 09:26

If this was true someone would have spilled the beans long before now.

LieselVonTwat · 24/09/2015 09:37

His girlfriend from that time said that he was not a member of the group where this was supposed to have happened and said that he was incredibly straight as a student

I must admit, I didn't think of him as the Piers Gaveston type either. Bullingdon Club, yes, all over. But not PG. That's not to say I don't think he did it- it sounds like the sort of stupid shit that student drinking societies do. There must be rugby boys and ex rugby boys all over the country who could share similar memories.

M4blues · 24/09/2015 09:42

I think the thread title is borderline libellous, surely?
Nowhere has there been allegations that this was a sexual act. And I think making an allegation that the PM has a sexual interest in dead human bodies is utterly ridiculous. I'm in no way a fan of Cameron but you cannot just say these things. The thread title needs amending.

As an aside I'm more appalled that more people are less appalled at the other initiation allegation; namely that they burned £50 notes I front of homeless people. I mean, that's just wankerish behaviour in the extreme. It shows utter contempt for humanity. Against that, I can't get upset about the idiocy of thinking it was cool to shove your flaccid penis into left over dinner.

KidLorneRoll · 24/09/2015 09:42

As much as I despise the man, I really can't bring myself to give a crap. Everyone does stupid things when they are young.

IthoughtATMwasacashpoint · 24/09/2015 09:50

Frankly, I'm rather more disturbed that a Bullingdon Club pastime was to set light to a £50 note in front of a homeless person, thus teaching future politicians proper contempt for the poor.

DreamingOfThruxtons · 24/09/2015 09:59

I can't bear David Cameron. Aside from finding some of the memes going about mildly amusing, I couldn't give a shiny shit that he put his willy in a carcase back in his student days.

I am much more bothered by the damage he is doing whilst in power, but hey-ho: the more fluff like this we can be persuaded to waste our time on, the less focus given to the real consequences of these. Hmm.

DreamingOfThruxtons · 24/09/2015 10:01

(Oh, yes- M4Blues is also correct: the burning of £50 notes in front of homeless people does get my bile going, on the other hand...)

PlentyOfPubeGardens · 24/09/2015 10:08

I am much more bothered by the damage he is doing whilst in power, but hey-ho: the more fluff like this we can be persuaded to waste our time on, the less focus given to the real consequences of these. Hmm.

I am also far more bothered by the damage he is doing to the country, to poor people, disabled people, public services ... but people knew all about those things and voted him back in anyway! If him fucking a dead pig (sort of, allegedly, 'oh but haven't we all done silly things as drunk students' Hmm) turned out to be the thing that ended his power I could live with that.

Room101isWhereIUsedToLive · 24/09/2015 10:12

If they can get away with burning large sums of money in front of destitute people, then why shouldn't the destitute people be allowed to burn things that belong to the likes of Cameron and his ilk?
pretty sure no one will take this comment seriously but viva la revolution

Andrewofgg · 24/09/2015 17:21

Tomm101 Because Cameron et al. were burning their own fifties, not the money of the destitute. Still a loathsome thing to do.

NicoleWatterson · 24/09/2015 17:23

I'm with you op, it's bloody disgusting. As a 'drunk prank' its still bloody disgusting. Being a drunk doesn't make it ok, being a prank doesn't make it ok.
It's grim, truly grim.

The80sweregreat · 24/09/2015 17:40

no wonder he is keen to keep Boris happy, even though they don't really get on( if you believe what you read of course!) BJ probably has all sorts on him. Keep your friends close and enemies closer and all that.
The man who has written all these things is just getting revenge. It is probably true - not a Cam fan at all, but we've all done stupid regrettable things in our time. I doubt any of the house of commons or lords are all saints somehow. I felt more sorry for the long forgotten dead pig. poor thing.

Nonnainglese · 24/09/2015 17:46

I suspect there are MPs of all persuasions sweating buckets about what might crawl out of the woodwork.
All this is boring and quite frankly irrelevant imo.

I'm sure Lord A was no saint and it puts him in a pretty poor light, hardly a credible source of information.

BoyScout · 24/09/2015 18:12

It's almost certainly true. Insightful article by Damien McBride in The Guardian yesterday explaining why.

I find it mildly amusing but mostly 'meh'. That's what drunk students do.

SoupDragon · 24/09/2015 18:22

If him fucking a dead pig (sort of...

There is no "sort of" about it. He didn't fuck a dead pig. At all.

SoupDragon · 24/09/2015 18:22

(And no, I'm neither a David Cameron fan nor an Tory voter)

PlentyOfPubeGardens · 24/09/2015 18:28

Sorry, 'placed his penis inside a bodily orifice of a dead pig'. Personally I'd say that was 'sort of' fucking a dead pig but I'm happy to agree to differ Smile

SmugairleRoin · 24/09/2015 18:30

Oh ffs, hyperbole reigning supreme in that thread title I see.
It's amazing really - students do stupid things, who'd have thought! The burning of money in front of the homeless person is much worse. The pig thing is nowt.

MistressChalk · 24/09/2015 18:36

Plenty, using that theory he 'fucks' his underwear everyday too. Seriously the hysteria leading to words like bestiality and necrophilia just leads debate away from discussing possibly issues behind his actions such as; why do young men do stupid disgusting stuff when drunk and do we tackle this behaviour?
Using those words is ridiculously hyperbolic. It's the same as If David Cameron scratched his nose whilst talking to someone, and people started being outraged that 'David Cameron sneezed in an old woman's face!'.
The more you exaggerate and take it out of context, the less likely people will be to actually debate on it.

Dapplegrey1 · 24/09/2015 18:40

If Damian Harris says it's true then it must be. It's not as if he has ever told a lie or smeared anyone.....

PlentyOfPubeGardens · 24/09/2015 19:05

using that theory he 'fucks' his underwear everyday too
Well no, because underwear doesn't have bodily orifices (leg holes don't count).

why do young men do stupid disgusting stuff when drunk and do we tackle this behaviour?
I don't think most young men do, not on this level of stupid and disgusting. I've been more shocked at the number of people who regard this as normal, silly student behaviour than I was by the pig allegation itself. In this case it appears to have been some sort of weird initiation ceremony to a posh boy's club. I think those clubs are well worth talking about because they are all about incredibly privileged young men giving each other a leg up. It's no coincidence that Cameron, Osborne and Boris were all members of a club whose initiation ceremony is burning £50 in front of homeless people.
