Guest toonlass Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 I may not agree with his politics but no parent should have to see their child die. RIP Ivan, my thoughts are with the Cameron family. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/7909562.stm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MidfieldGeneral Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 That's tragic. No parent should ever out live there children. Can't think of anything worse that could happen to someone R.I.P. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest firetotheworks Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Awful. I had no idea he had a son with SP. Worst thing that can happen to you I imagine. Tragic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Even though I think the man is a total cunt, I am sorry for his loss. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Geordie Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Horrible for this to happen to Cameron and his family. They have my best wishes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Thoughts are with the family. To avoid this post being a mere "+1" I'd like to point out that if Cameron ever mentions his son in a speech to use him to try and gain votes, it means that the man is a heartless cunt. Now I've underlined that because there are titheads on here that would easily rush straight in and make out that I've said Cameron is a cunt for mentioning his son in a press interview - no doubt he will and thats perfectly fine. But if he uses him as a tool "I've coped without my son" or "My son died and I tried to..." it's wrong. He's a politican, so although he's a barefaced liar I hope he has some dignity and doesn't harp on about it. RIP to the child and my best wishes to the Cameron family.

80 Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 I've next to no time for Cameron, but to be fair he's never once made the issue he could've of this for cynical purposes. I'm quite sure he won't now, though we can't rule out the possibility he may encounter a genuinely good reason to discuss it at some point. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
davy_fulla Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Can't see him using this to try and win support. I'm sure a lot of people - myself included - didn't even know he had a disabled child. He's never made an issue of this in the past so I really don't see why he would start now. RIP.

Anyway, Cameron never really talks about it himself. Usually other people making reference to it when I've seen it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilko Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 If you read it, you'll see there's an "if...", you fucking cretin. I haven't called Cameron anything. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 If you read it, you'll see there's an "if...", you fucking cretin. I haven't called Cameron anything. The if is irrelevant, the point is that you did try and make a point of it at an innappropriate time and place. I can see where you were coming from, but at times like that, things like this are best left unsaid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
