Appointment of PM Cameron simply shows MPs in Conservative Party are out of ideas and people. With 300+ MPs, you couldn't find a current Conservative MP to fill the Foreign Secretary office?
And neither could I let’s expand to labour MPs also parliament wants closing down its past its sell by date
OUT OF THE CUNTRY NEXT YEAR

@@bettyholmes1155 Is that Conservative Campaign Headquarters commenting again? The "they're all the same" trope is is theirs. It's pathetic attempt to deflect from the fact the THIS series of corrupt, self serving and incompetent governments is the worst to have blighted this country in modern history. NO THEY'RE NOT ALL THE SAME, THERE'S NOBODY AS CORRUPT AS THE TORIES.
Sunacks shot himself in the foot bringing him back .he was bad enough last time
Nobody but nobody in the British public wants David Cameron to ever return in any post whatsoever
you do not speak for all of us. we can disagree on politics, but we must agree on reality
Wrong. And your opinion isn't fact
Absolutely 💯 agree.
The next will be Osborne, running the treasury. What an absolute shambles.
For all the talks of unelected EU bureaucrats, Brexiteer Sunak appoints unelected Cameron (he isn't an mp) as Foreign Secretary. You couldn't make this one up😂
Not only that, but Rishi campaigning as the 'change' candidate then bringing in the ghost of the 2010's
Unelected PM (not even chosen by his own party) chooses unelected non-MP to represent the country at the highest level. No interviews required
I don't want him. No one wants him, but the govt will be gone and so will he at the next election. I'm still waiting for the next election date for EU commission positions. Ursula I'm always lying may well win in a landslide again, but I won't hold my breath...
The past 10 years of politics are going to make a fantastic History A Level in the future
As mentioned Margaret Thatcher appointed Lord Carrington as her first Foreign Secretary. I know it sounds odd but Sunak in this case has done nothing wrong. Cameron will have someone to speak for him in the House of Commons.
I still remember David Cameron whistling as he walked away from the burning pile of garbage he created.

@paulwalker797 pardon my ignorance. I thought though that Germany was in recession, immigration was almost out of control thanks to your last chancellor. Germany actually is a place I'd probably move to out of them all. I have friends who moved there over a decade ago. It's gone a bit left there I've heard, like more than usual.

You can tell Cameron will be fully invested in his new senior position in government when you hear him explain that the reason why he accepted the job: he was bored.
What d'you get when you have completely scraped the bottom of the barrel? An empty barrel.
And what about David’s pay packet , will it be known , as this is really the answer ,
Not only was he bored, he was bored "shitless" 💀
nobody chose rishi sunak to be the leader of country just the front bench of the Torys we need a general election
the W.E.F. did
We need to have a national referendum on Sunak and every other pm if we truly are the so called “democracy” that we claim.
Is this because he sacked Braverman? We didn't get to vote on whether Braverman would be home secretary either. 'We' elected the Tories, they chose Sunak as their leader. (He then ditched the manifesto, but that's a different conversation).
Reality check
No British Prime Minister is elected they are only MPs and leaders of the party that wins the most seats in parliament
The return of...... David Cameron.....
Apparently he's back because he was 'bored'. To me that sums up how people like Cameron see these jobs. They're not important roles with huge responsibilities attached to them, they're hobbies.
And a means to lining their own pockets, greed and power….
He will be bored again soon 😂
Absolute joke this country is a laughing stock

Has been for 7 years. No other country looks at the UK and says "wow, theres a stable country who has their stuff together". In answer to the question posed in the video: NO ONE does! David Cameron is not the answer to any kind of problem. I think Sunak is simply grasping at straws here and making a job for anyone who he feels might be popular. Keir Starmer has a very easy job here, stay calm and quiet and let them trip themselves up. Why interrupt the "government" when they are scoring own goals all over the place and looking ridiculous at it.

He gave us the 2016 referendum not because he wanted the people to decide the issue - but in order to silence the Eurosceptics in his own party and neutralise the threat from UKIP, but he ran away when the electorate didn't vote the way he wanted.

She was ruthlessly power hunger that drove her to make habitual mistakes repeatedly!

Well they did consider Suella Braverman to be “working class”. I mean her private school only charges 13k per term. And she went to Cambridge not Oxford so! 🤔🤷😂😵💫
You missed entitlement for your list
It strikes me that if Sunak couldn't find a single Tory MP to be Home Secretary, they've got bigger problems than we already knew they did.
Never has a country seen such a moral,economic,financial decline since the tories were voted in..to make matters worse the opposition is pathetic.
This couldn't be said any better.
The great reset… get used to it they’ve not even started yet
Yes. Resigned my LP membership earlier in protest of their lack of engagement & therefore complicity in the ongoing Gazan massacre
Originally propped up by Sir Nick Clegg and The Liberal Democrats. Who a party member was none other than....Sir Ed Davey.
@@tobyalan8874 The Liberal Democrats have a lot to answer for. They walked away from a coalition with Labour in 2010, paving the way for various disastrous outcomes in the last thirteen years. They are holier than thou and sanctimonious, liberal on social issues ( rightly, in my view) but just as happy as the Tories to bash the poor with cruel and economically illiterate austerity which inhibited the (anemic) recovery. The Orange Book Liberals had no problem with austerity.
If this is stability, I wish we'd had that "chaos with Ed Milliband"!
This country has steadily been going downhill since Cameron became PM. He’s just gone into the cabinet to put the final boot in. 😢
Steadily?
@@Charlie_Winters_Tipster Yeah, you’re right, not steadily at all!

The fact that Anne Widdecombe still gets air time at all is just astonishing in its own right
Seeing Ann Widdicombe on two seperate news outlets within 24 hours, is a portent of impending doom.

This is the blooming of the Age of the Nefarious ...........
She could take up " face sitting". She could do very well... so I'm told.
The four horsemen of the apocalypse are pestilence, war, famine, and Widdecombe. We're definitely entering the end times.
Cameron held a binding 'advisory' referendum without any legal guard rails, the Leave campaign must have laughed themselves to sleep everynight.
Making the man who ruined Libya into foreign secretary? Give me an effin' break

same with Obama and Biden. All back together now.
@@susanmorgan3104 No problem for Cameron as he doesn't have a seat to defend.
Great to see Cameron back. Said no-one. He brought us the catastrophe of Brexit to appease the hard right of his party, failed to plan for post Brexit, needless austerity that has destroyed public services and deepened poverty/ inequality, and the effects of the removal of Gaddafi in 2011 (Sarkozy also involved) fuelled terrorism in the region, according to a Foreign Affairs Select Committee report in 2016 ( Independent article, September 15th 2016). An open goal for Labour to exploit and a sure fire sign of Sunak's desperation.
And it took an undemocratic emergency lordship to make it happen. Accountability is in tatters 🙁
Both Labour and the Conservatives during the 2010 election believed that Austerity measures needed to be implemented. With the Labour chancellor Alister Darling before the 2010 election already planning for significant cuts in terms of spending if labour won the General election.
@@islaypupdog6750 Austerity is part of neoliberalism meaning both parties are wrong to support it. Labour surrendered to Thatcherism under Blair and therein lies the problem. Austerity is also economically illiterate as it inhibits recovery and worsens living standards- the poor spend a greater proportion of their income on goods and services locally. The whole neoliberal paradigm since 1979 needs to be reversed. Period.

I swear this is a joke of unimaginable proportions. At this point Rishi is just trolling the British public😂
Now we have an Eton Mess for dessert!
So ... do tell me how did Cameron a staunch Remainer 'start Brexit'?
Oh wait .... yes of course he called a referendum after UKIP got the 3rd highest popular vote in a General Election.
Got to love democracy..
...I agree...we need a proper Brexit now....!
Brace yourselves for the announcement that Sunak is going to appoint Boris Johnson as chancellor of the exchequer. LOL

It'd be funny if it were not so pitifully inept... the best replacement to Braveman is the person who sold brexit without explaining or understanding the consequences. That's the best they can come up with.
Actually, Cameron is Foreign Secretary. James Cleverly has taken Braverman's job.
He didn't sell brexit per say. He made a terrible mistake calling the referendum to begin with, but he created part of the environment where racism and xenophobia spread like wildfire amongst people who were being hurt by his austerity policies. So he is 100% responsible for brexit occurring, alongside the grifters who promoted it.
@@ecaeas4439he didn't want brexit ...others had "promised" a referendum Blair included but never ment it ...Cameron was cornered by Nigel threatening the jobs of Tory MPs ...and the EU humiliating him when he went to get some help from em ! After all that he had to have one but like all the Globaists and lefties, couldn't conceive he'd lose it !!! his face that next morning was priceless !
Yup, James cleverly, an easily detestable man... found in 2021 to be in breach of the ministerial code regarding Israeli arms deals. He's been hired to replace suella, who was sacked after undermining the police regarding a protest against Israeli weapons being used on civilians 😅😅 Someone please wake from this cheese dream
I don’t agree with Brexit and I pledge no allegiance to any party.
But it’s no job I’d want. You can never ever be given any kind of approval or positive acknowledgment. What was Cameron to do , call a referendum when there were calls for it. Give the people a democratic choice or refuse. I’m certain he’d have been smashed to bits of he didn’t back then.
At least he actually gave choice to the public. Some of the things going on these days are controversial and we have no say at all it seems. Given, Brexit was fuelled with lies - that’s another point. But it’s easy to point and blame. Impossible for them to ever get anything right.
It seems to me the data they receive and the means in which it’s gathered needs modernising. They are all completely out of touch in every possible way.
Fantastic! Someone who brought in the brexit and quit not willing to implement it will look into home affairs now. Wow!
Foreign affairs. Which makes it worse 😂. James cleverly is the home secretary... A man already found to have been in breach of the ministerial code regarding Israeli arms deals in 2021.
Actually he fought against Brexit so quitting was the right thing to do. Much better to have someone who truly believes in Brexit to implement it rather than someone who is half-hearted.
Perhaps his return reflects a shift in the Tory party on Brexit. Will Rory Stewart also be returning?
If he didnt believe in it and wasnt prepared to go through with it ahould not have brought about a vote to appease the hardliners in his party.
@@multicolouredsmile1632 It seems most of the tories are corrupt.

@@endintiers Its not just Cameron's position on Brexit but also his position on Palestine that differs from the current Tory policy. Years ago he declared Gaza an open air prison.

I think its actually surprisingly clever by Sunak to wait with sacking Braverman. The debacle on saturday that made very clear who the actual violent mob was , now happened while she was still in place, making that fully her responsability. As the old saying goes: Never interrupt an enemy in the proces of destroying itself.
Ninja moves for sure. Well spotted!
Unelected PM appoints an unelected Foreign Secretary. That's desperation, sorry democracy, for you.
I'll be very surprised if David Brexit Austerity Greensill Cameron lasts 6 months. Sunak is a second rate businessman with far more money than ability, and he's a third rate politician. People are running rings around him behind the scenes, and those people are more than useless. He came second to Liz Truss. Says it all.

I doubt James ever reads these comments but here goes,
I grew up in a single parent home ( my mom was widowed) and she was extraordinary supplementing my public school education.
I say this because I am rarely envious of an individual but when I listen to James talk about the quality of his education and the impact it had on him, I admit I turn very green and get a bit angry.
Not with James, rather that I think 'what I might have been able to add to society if my imagination could have been focused and nurtured in such an environment'.
Anyway, James it is a pleasure to listen and watch such a well educated and bright Journalist who THINKS. You challenge me with your knowledge of history and your linguistic acumen is a marvel.
Thanks for you and your team's hard work.
Cheers.

Personally i wouldn't worry about it too much. Private schools have better sports facilities and are able to give their students a slightly unfair leg-up in some respects, but you have to offset these advantages against a general atmosphere of snobbery, moral decay and institutionalisation of the pupils.
A quick glance at certain past and present tory front benchers ought to be proof enough that private education is more about perpetution of privilege then nurturing the imagination of young minds in order to enrich society...
I listened to O'brien for years every morning while at work; I finally got sick of his slippery, chameleonic, always has to be right attitude last year and switched back to 5live.

Excellent James. Regards the numbers. The 300,000 was at the start. There were 800,000 by the end. There is also a claim that Suella is being subjected to Misoginy.
Hit it on the head James. The return of the Chipping Norton set. Murdoch media backing at the next election.
well done james I hope it didnt hurt you to pay Jeremy a compliment for once.
The man that pushed through unaffordable rents is back lovely
It's poetic in a way, 13 years of Tory rule began with David Cameron and with just over a year before the next election (making this probably the last major cabinet reshuffle), it will end with David Cameron. It says something that even the right wing/pro-Tory press is calling this an act of desperation, and a bad idea.
He asked his wife what she wanted for dinner once. When she got the answer wrong he ran away.
Bumbling Boris, Troublesome Truss, Slinky Sunak, Cruella Braverman & now Calamitous Cameron you just cant make this stuff up. A comedy of errors that has resulted in a poorer & less empathetic country (Unless you are a CEO or banker).
Did JKRowling write this plot? At least they had Dumbledore to get them out of any supernatural mess.....
The chef just put pork spitroast on the menu today in number 10.
Dave shows up
Wes Streeting summed it up quite well in an article I read today where he said that since coming into power in 2010, the Conservatives have pretty much exhausted all the viable names at the bottom of the barrel, so they’re basically starting all over again.
James speaks truth !
Lol 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Why hasn't Michael Fabricant been made PM? Thats the real question.
is right
You’ve really hurt Grant Shapps’ feelings with this comment
The country has to live with the consequences of his disastrous Brexit vote. He should never have allowed an ignorant population to have a vote on something so damaging to our future.
I thought brexit was all about getting rid of un elected officials?
I’m not on the left or the right and I still think Cameron coming bk and is a joke …
So IF the Tories are voted in again, Cameron will take the credit, if the Tories fall, it’ll be Sunak’s fault!!!!
Then Cameran can reveal his new leadership bid!
Don't know if he can be leader again..by law?
"...in the corner of every newsroom in the country..." 😂😂😂
Had no idea you could even be appointed as a Minister without being an elected MP. Nevermind Greensill scandal and the pig's head!
Who remembers when the country voted for the Lib Dems to be in power, and Nick Clegg to be PM, but then Cameron and the Tories weaseled their way in with a "coalition" instead of a second vote, and then took over anyway? Hands up if you remember that🤚 it was roughly about 13 years ago.
Well, this is not an alien concept for most of Europe. We are an oddity for having a system that favours majority governments. At least the Lib Dems could inhibit some of Tory policy.
Vote Lib Dem, Green or SNP.
When did "the country" vote for the Lib Dems to be in power?
Of the people that bothered to vote in 2010, 32.4% voted Conservative, 35.2% voted Labour and 22.0% voted Lib Dem. However, the way you describe the situation anyone would think the Lib Dems had the largest percentage.
Not actually true, they were the third wheel, effectively kingmakers, who refused to negotiate with Labour who had the most MPs, and chose to get into bed with Cameron and the Tories, the reward from the voters in 2015 was political oblivion.
@@bookie5667 Thank you for explaining this.
Sunak did this because the News is not of Suella being sacked but of david cameron it's the cleverest thing Sunak has done which isn't saying much
I don’t know. News of sacking will blow over, but Suella will still remain causing trouble. Also - the impact of Britain’s presence on the world stage as a result of Cameron’s appointment will be far more significant in the long run. Either Sunak didn’t recognise this or doesn’t care. Either way, not bigbrainmoment
They are cheering themselves and patting each other on the back! 🤮🤮
Well…according with Mike Graham on his show last night…only 11% of the population approve of Cameron’s return. Imagine, that many! 🙈
Yayyyy,let’s get Johnson back as Heath secretary
😂😂😂
I think he is after the top job ( again) I hope not though. We are still picking up the pieces from 2010
Can't
@@sourcessay8295 phew, what a relief. Thanks for the clarification
"Who cheers this..."
His next door neighbour, Jeremy Clarkson?
O'Brien one of very few left at LBC that talk sense and aren't deeply biased or cowardly
WOW Tories are trolling us
