The Cameron Years - Episode 1 - A Huge Fight on My Hands
Drawing on an exclusive interview with David Cameron, this series explores his leadership, the events that led to the EU referendum and his impact on our political landscape.
The first episode looks at how David Cameron went from riding high following his successful 2015 election campaign to offering his own resignation to the British public on the steps of Downing Street just over a year later.

@@nicokern7615 It will forever be a matter of opinion. What one person sees as the wrong decision, another will say was right. We had an election just a year after , and overwhelming numbers voted for pro-Brexit parties, even though one party stood on a very clear policy of a 2nd ref. I voted for that party, so this isn't my pro-Brexit bias talking. There was a chance to remain, and unlike the ref which strictly speaking was advisory the GE result was binding. Both main party leaders emphasized their manifestos' Brexit credentials, and made clear their other policies were largely contextual to leaving the EU. 75% of voters endorsed them. As if that wasn't emphatic enough, as we all know the 2019 GE was won by a party literally staking virtually its entire campaign for government precisely on a promise to leave, and they won a landslide. True, the Opposition were dire, but again there were other options available, should sufficient numbers have wanted to remain.

David Cameron felt he could not be the Prime Minister after what he said and did during his remain in the EU campaign. He believed that staying in the EU was the best option for the UK, and he could not honestly lead England out of the EU. Michael Gove said that he felt David Cameron should stay as Prime Minister and lead England out of the EU. Michael Gove said that doing what the country wanted was beyond himself or David Cameron, and David Cameron should set aside his beliefs and lead England out of the EU. I guess that is the problem. Michael Gove feel it is possible for someone to do something that they believe will lead their country's ruin. Can David Cameron do his best to accomplish something that he believes would ruin his own country? Is Michael Gove's expectation honest or is Michael Gove just exaggerating or lying? Theresa May was an EU remainer. Theresa May was the Prime Minister and she tried to lead England out of the EU. What did the 3 Brexiteers do? Michael Gove, Boris Johnson, and Jacob Rees-Mogg among other Brexiteering Tories voted against Theresa May's Deals. Eventually they forced Theresa May to resign. Boris Johnson was chosen by the Brexiteering Tories to be Prime Minister. Did David Cameron foresee the power grab that was happening. Michael Gove's words sounds honorable. Let us put aside our differences for King and Country. By the way we will do everything we can to block Prime Minister May's Brexit Deals, and replace her with one of our own.

In an alternative timeline when Remain won the EU referendum in 2016, Cameron would have stayed on as prime minster until 2020 at least, because that is when it would have been 5 years since the 2015 general election, now of course that have meant we would have had an election year as the pandemic was going on, how differently would Cameron have handled the pandemic differently to Johnson?

The EU project was something that Great Britain, from PM Thatcher to the average working class bloke, never accepted. The EU single market and EU customs union mean that member states are going to optimize trade, and yes make money. But among the most developed, most industrialized, most "western civilization" STATES, their mission is to lead the rest of Europe into the modern world. John Major (when he was working for PM Thatcher) said that Great Britain wanted to be in the EU (single market and customs union) but not use the Euro as currency. John Major has the right to take this position. He felt that the southern European states were "not on par" economically speaking with the developed countries, i.e. Germany, England, & France (the big 3). John Major's concern is absolutely true. Southern European states were not as developed and not as stable as the big 3. After the fall of Soviet Union, the Eastern European Communist Bloc states would add even less developed and less stable states to the EU. Since the fall of the Roman Empire in the 5 century AD European states has been evolving. Only a handful of European states developed representative government and advanced industries. They are England, France, Germany, Netherland, Belgium, ... But only England, France, and Germany are populous enough to become European super powers. As a result, in a unified European alliance the big 3 must lead the other European countries to "be on par." What do I mean. This is illustrated by the Greek Crisis and how Chancellor Merkel and Germany imposed austerity on a fiscally irresponsible Greek government. The EU would bail out Greece from their financial crisis, but the Greek government cannot spend more money than they make (taxes). By using the same currency (Euro) an irresponsible European state can ruin the value of the Euro for all of its member states. So the most developed EU countries (the big 3) must guide the "not on par" states toward a "on par" state. The European countries on the continent have suffered through many wars. The stronger, more developed countries have swallowed up smaller, weaker, and less developed countries. France and Germany have been at the center of such conflicts, and they want to prevent another conflict. This means sharing the risk of a common currency (Euro) and regulating irresponsible practices among member states to keep the Euro safe for all Europeans. In reality, the EU member states have already allowed England to avoid the risk of a common currency and to enjoy the benefit of the single market access. However, most people of Great Britain feel they are getting a bad deal from the other European countries. If England was Kosovo I would understand their position. But England is not Kosovo. England is Germany or France. England needs to lead the "not on par" European countries. A developed and stable Europe is good for England.

The Conservative Party were and still are in disarray and irrevocably dysfunctional and at war with itself. The start of this political impasse probably originated from the ousting of Thatcher which was also directly linked to the issue of Europe! No doubt immigrants will always bear the brunt of blame due to economic discomfort and its impact on the populace which no doubt, for the average man on the street, makes up the vast amount of the uniformed public. People forget one of the main triggers for that discomfort and austerity.... the bail out of the unregulated financial institutions! As for the very real migrant crisis, as mirrored in the US, regional wars instigated by the west, particularly in Libia, may also be a factor for the uncontrollable numbers of very desperate people seeking a better life.

Cameron did a lot wrong but he’s certainly not to blame for the entire mess. A good prime minister listens to his people, and he was correct to call the referendum. He was strongly advising the people to remain in the EU as he believed it was best, and sadly not enough people agreed. He could have kept fighting after the result, but he was probably right to step down and give someone else a go, someone who had a passion for a post-EU Britain. As I said Cameron is definitely not perfect, and he’s not going to go down as a fantastic prime minister, but he gets a lot of unnecessary hate when he’s not entirely to blame for the current state of the country.
I said it the moment it was clear that leave had won the referendum; Brexit would ultimately benefit the UK enormously however we'd have to go through a lengthy period of pain and hardship. I still believe that. Brexit will lead to long-term prosperity that far outweighs the benefits of EU membership eventually however we're still 2-3 years away. The trouble is that the public (and certain news organisations) want it all NOW. They want money, growth and success for themselves now. They don't want to sacrifice and struggle in the short term, even if that sacrifice means long term (multi-generational) prosperity. The public needs to understand that sometimes one has to go through hardship today to ensure tomorrow is plentiful.

its always another two years away everybody is laughing at us but as you are somebody who has no idea what the EU is and how devastating leaving is allow me to give you a reality check , to keep this constructive and not a insult blood bath we are not better out the EU and never will be, you haven't stated facts so here is some number 1- nobody new how to carry out Brexit from the start, you are still believing this delusion that we are better out even though Boris Johnson lied like the cunt he is and went against his own beliefs of staying in the EU because he wanted to benefit his career , number 2 Nigel Farage himself said he wouldn't voted for leave if he hadn't have anything to do with being the driving force of leave as he said the promises from Boris and Michael were unrealistic and were misleading , number 3 why did we join the EU again??? oh wait we were broke and because the Tories closed all the steel works and industries especially in the north of England so we are depended on foreign importing then out sourcing, number 4 WE ARE NOT AMERICA AND THE CURRENT GOVERMENT WITCH ARE APPRENTLY "PRO LEAVE TO THE CORE" HAVE JUST SIGNED A DEAL TO KEEP A PART OF THE UK IN EUROPE, number 5 leaving Europe means we are weaker and we are now a bitch to America as well the EU as we don't have as i have stated industries that are not European and America see us only as a backdoor way into Europe as the European union is a rival to America from a business and power prospective, Kemi Bedanoche came out recently saying there is " strength in numbers" she was Pro leave and yet we have just signed a deal with Australia Canada New Zealand with Australian farmers benefiting with British farmer losing out because they are unable to import or trade with the Eu and Austrian farmers can import cheaper meet witch means British farmers are losing out due to prices having to go up because of the cost exporting and all other costs, lastly if you think leaving is a good idea your are either racist or just fucking stupid you decide what you are

Lad, or miss or whatever : It's been bloody 7 years(almost 8 now) we've been waiting for the so-called Brexit dividends ! What the hell more time do you need ? The facts are just there,the UK is worse off outside the EU than it would've been inside and more time is going to add nothing than more regret to the whole mess those desilusions created. . .

I tried to watch this but I cannot stomach even looking at the man, the damage he did to the country in pursuit of his own legacy on both the domestic and international stage will continue to be felt by the people of our country for years to come and the way he ran away was unforgivable.

Boohoo, you left a group of nations that you were part of for a while. You can get back in someday, or live fine like Norway and other European nations do. Not the end of the world either way.........and the economy bounced back during his tenure, in complete refutation of lefty arguments that his mild cuts in spending would cause a huge recession. More new jobs than the rest of the EU combined, like he said. For a while.

No, he joined the government, which was the most sensible option. And of course when you come in 3rd in an election, you don't get to make most of the decisions. In a coalition.

Cameron total failure
It is too his eternal shame that he brought in homosexual marriage. He will have to give a most solomn account when he comes to stand before God's throne of judgment the moment after death. Unless he repents of this grievous sin he will be punished for it and regret it eternally in hell.
