To think that David Cameron should resign?

[deeedeee]

Presiding over a government that is trying to spin doctors and teachers into militants ,

Supporting a chancellor that has failed to reduce the deficit by his own standards and has delivered two hated and u turning budgets in a row, over the death of the British Steel Industry, is attacking renewable energy in times of climate change, is taking support from the ill and disabled is and NOW he has admitted benefiting from TAX AVOIDANCE????!!!!
This is all wrong. How many more years of this?

Olivia, you can't be serious? Vulnerable people are dying as a direct result of Tory policies.

Olivia

Labour aren't in a position to capitalise on this at the moment, too much disarray

I am wondering why this has come out now and if anyone else's connections will come to light

I am not sure it is the right time for the UK to have a new PM. I would rather changes are made to stop such tax evasion rather than one person made an example of which could easily be the case should he be made to resign. There is a bigger issue that all politicians need to concentrate on than a leadership battle and that is the referendum

They did try to keep it under the (Panama) hat. I'll get my coat.

I feel bad for his kids

For his kids?! Cameron was so shielded from his dad's shenanigans that he had no idea, the poor darling, despite his Oxford PPE. So they'll shield their kids from this scandal. Or else, like their parents, they just won't fucking care.

we should be able to oust the Tories altogether, and have another vote.

That ship sailed last May. Tory voters can hardly be surprised ...

Exactly what would DC have to do to get sacked?!

It used to be lose a vote of confidence in the HoC. No idea since we went for fixed term parliaments.

And cock in the pig.

That's snoutrageous

As far as I can make out neither Cameron nor his father have done anything illegal so why should he resign? Tax avoidance is perfectly permissible.

His kids didn't choose to be part of this circus of lies...

Their dad left them in a pub, fucked a dead pig, had dodgy offshore accounts, and has the creepiest mates in the world.

I know many kids have it worse, but I can't help feeling a bit sorry for them.

Setting aside all the trampling on the poor, the disadvantaged, the disabled and everyone in the public sector, it's the fucking incompetence that gets me about this.
Him & Sam sold their shares as Downing St became a realistic prospect for them. He can't have needed to sell for financial reasons. It must have been something he knew would be viewed dimly. So they off loaded the shares to try to look better than they were.

The difference between this and other examples is that there is personal gain - whereas other decisions that have been made are a point of principle, which although not everyone agrees there is no direct personal gain

YANBU - pig-loving, tax-avoiding shyster that he is. The man's a bloody embarrassment.

But his own party are unlikely to push for a vote of no confidence. Far too worried about their own tax cupboard skeletons.

At the very least, he is an appalling hypocrite. He has criticised others for doing what he has done.
He should also provide a moral lead. He and his sodding government persecute the pot and disabled, and now we find out that he's been avoiding tax.

I have just googled petitions calling for his resignation. There seem to be rather a lot! But they are all quite old and not necessarily related to this latest issue.

I agree with Olivia.
And resent being called a heartless wanker cos I voted Tory in the last election.

I'm more heartless wanker cos I hate the benefit feral chav culture that Labour enabled. This country is on its knees throughl it.

But we do agree that you're a heartless wanker?

Lol Cock.

I think I'll save my sympathies for all the poor children having to visit food banks with their parents due to this government sanction regime.
He's avoiding tax.
If it were say for eg a single mum working on the QT just to simply survive. She would be dragged over the coals thrown in jail and her kids would be taken into care.

Who cares about his bloody kids? They're appallingly privileged, and he's the one who's put them in the public eye.

Until all MPs including Labour ones release all of their tax returns etc then no one knows exactly what is going on.

As I said on another thread, there are some 'extremely wealthy' Labour MPs, including some in the shadow cabinet that have been very quiet over this.

And yet again, only the poor/ordinary/plebs whatever you want to call us, have to suffer austerity. Whilst the rich can stick their £s offshore which benefits no-one, here.

How is a benefit chav feral culture different from a greasy-businessman-tax-avoiding culture?

Both are about summat for nowt, at the expense of the vast majority of us in the middle, who work, pay taxes, and haven't had huge inheritances to stash away fast as a tory stashes his bits in a pig's mouth.

I take it Cameron Sr paid for the offspring's fancy Eton education with money saved from wheezes like this, too?

I don't think that those who vote for a political party of any kind vote for the personal affairs whatever they may be of the leaders. People are entitled to vote for who they want to, we live in a democratic country, debate and disagreement is fair but not insults. This particular issue is not party related
