That vast chasm between David Cameron’s ambition and his ability is what the entire country has now fallen into.
This bumbling amateur, whose sole positive legacy after seven years of leadership is marriage equality, is a walking, talking role model for the difference between education and intelligence.
This chinless wonder made the u-turn an art form so often that he drilled himself and his country into the ground.
This embarrassing cypher of a man sums up perfectly the modern X-Factor / Big Brother / Geordie Shore / TOWIE / Jeremy Kyle-obsessed Britain: Full of ambition, full of neat little soundbites, full of the expectation that his “strategy” will somehow work out if only he can find someone with a clue about how to turn it into reality… but with a chronic lack of authority, ability and attention span.
This Little Boy Blue, brought up with massive over-entitlement and equally massive ego, desperately wanted to lead the country from a very early age. Sadly, because he lacked peers strong enough to tell him to stop being silly and to go and do something a lot simpler instead, like banking, his ambition to lead has driven his country off a cliff.
David Cameron is not so much Britain’s leader as Britain’s “Lemming-in-Chief”.
His legacy is a country simultaneously laughing at him and crying. He must be so proud.
