Kidding aren't you? Dickhead set in motion the Brexit process that caused the chaos that turned us into a global laughing stock
Believe me, picking Cameron is like saying I’d choose a wart on the arse over a wart on the face. Neither is good but at least one isn’t obviously repulsive.

Which is least painful:
Popping an ACL
Standing on an upturned electrical plug
Smashing your little toe against a brick
Taking a dump after chowing down on a dozen Carolina Reapers
Having to perform extreme mental gymnastics to dull the constant nagging realisation you've been sold (and keep buying) a pup

Truss, maximum possible damage to the Tories...

Seriously, all have been awful. Maybe 2010-15 Cam / Clegg was OK, put us on the road to recovery after the GFC. Then Cameron nuked Britain in 2016 just as there were green shoots

Probably May. What an awful selection.

Cameron should have lost that GE with dignity rather than agreeing to that batsh!t referendum to get the UKIP votes. He put his party ahead of the country and that is unforgivable to me. Makes him worse than Johnson.

What an insanely bad list. I've gone May purely based on feeling - whilst I don't agree with her on many things - she's probably the most competent politician and I genuinely believe she tried to do what she saw as the right thing for the country with regards her Brexit deal.
That’s exactly what I feel. She probably saw the difficulties and tried to sort out all the problems that Johnson ognored when he “got Brexit done”…… badly.

May was terrible.

The referendum mandate allowed her to stay in the Single Market.
She should have made staying IN the SM a red line on Day 1. Brexit could have worked if she'd done that.

She must have been part of the Anti-Growth Coalition as she decided to reduce economic growth by not doing so.


A "weak and wobbly" leader. And don't forget all that "citizens of nowhere" nonsense.

Unvotable. Cameron in many ways is the worst as he is the architect of all the s..t we have faced. It was massively arrogant to call the referendum and he ran a half-hearted campaign hwhich was cloth-eared and patronising. It was massively irresponsible that he made no plans for what he would do if leave won which left a huge vacuum which was filled by the more extreme Brexiters who claimed, with no evidence, to speak for the people. The subsequent freakshow was not inevitable and he is ultimately to blame. A total c..t.

Please don't call Johnson 'Big Dog'. Even if meant ironically, it feeds his overblown sense of himself. Better remembered as Boris 'Hiding in a Fridge' Johnson, John Crace's 'The Convict' or perhaps just 'Body Piler'.

I'm guessing she had probably been told by the ERG she would've been out immediately if she tried that. Let's not forget the ridiculous level of power they wielded for a while.
