‘Mr Cameron, how do you sleep at night?’


by Sunny Hundal    

David Cameron was interviewed on the One Show today. It was up to the usual intellectual standards of day-time television.

But then the presenter Matt Baker slips this question in at the end…

Update: video replaced with one by Political Scrapbook

Priceless.

Should’ve gone for for the Rainier Wolfcastle response: “On top of a pile of money with many beautiful ladies.”

Thats Blair

“In a coffin filled with the blood of babies”. Wait, that’s George Osborne.

“With another man. Purely to save money”. No, that’s William Hague.

“In fear of what I’ll have to clean off the hall carpet in the morning”. Nick Clegg

“In dread that I’ll wake up and see Rupert Murdoch holding a pillow over my face” Vince Cable

“I dreamed I was eating a giant marshmallow and when I woke up I was” Eric Pickles.

As for CallMeDave, though I’ve started to think of him as The Mollock, he doesn’t sleep. He’s simply switched off so he can be recharged, connected to the internet for tomorrow’s instructions from Murdoch, his bald spot relocated and his plastic skin repolished

Baker; The man took the opportunity of a lifetime! (Within the remitt of his job.) He’s a folk hero. Rock on. Cameron; Bloodsuckers never sleep.

Schmidt,

Hilarious comment
