Cameron out by Christmas?

"Nadine Dorries, a vocal critic of the pair, went as far as to warn the leadership it could be ousted by Christmas"

"According to the rules of the backbench 1922 Committee, in order for David Cameron's position as leader to be challenged, the chairman of the committee needs to receive 46 signatures from Conservative MPs to signal a vote of no confidence," she told the Mail on Sunday. "I would guess that those signatures are already coming in and will reach 46 by Christmas."

After the drubbing at the Local elections the back bench seem to be baying for blood. Are Cameron and Osborne listening to their own party.

I have a feeling that once again the Tories will implode. What a Christmas present that would be. Wondered what you good people think.

A poor mid erm local election result is completely normal and expected for an incumbant party.

Cameron is doing fine. For once we have a PM who is putting the future of the country ahead if his own political popularity. He knew this would happen when he took office. In fact he said something along the lines of the fact he knew he would likely be hated, but generations down the line will thank him. Absolutely agree.

Unfortunately we have such a huge % of the population who wish to profit from the efforts of others that perhaps he underestimated quite how much he would be disliked.

gnocci some of us don't consider anything much about Cameron, competence and judgement are amongst the things we don't consider about him. Another three years is even tolerable personally for most, especially if the social consequences of the cuts pass you by. No shudder of there being hungry children in 21st century Britain? How will riots be dealt with if there is a next time?

So for what is it you think generations down the line will thank him?
