Cameron Betrays Us

[Pete3206]

Shit, I was so close to voting Tory this time.

It's an odd one, I'm not buying that he got the two teams confused or, indeed, that he always gets teams of the same colours mixed up. His uncle was Villa Chairman which suggests to me he knows the difference between all the clubs that wear our colours.  Did someone write "West Ham" into his script?   Was the speech delivered in West Ham territory?  Was he chatting about West Ham to someone before he got up to make the speech and the name just got lodged in his head?  It's embarrassing for him, but no big deal - public speakers make these types of gaffes all the time.

Apparently it wasn't on the autocue, so it seems it was a little jokey aside that went embarrassingly wrong for him.

Whether or not it's a big deal depends really. Plenty will dismiss it as you've done, which is fair enough.  Personally I think it shows how utterly vacuous he is.  He's not a football supporter at all, he's on record in Hansard saying so, but it's all part of the pseudo-pleb act, right up there with more beer and bingo.

Marina Hyde reported him talking to a group in a factory (so set the Plebometer to 9) when he made a reference to Villa winning the cup and saying "Well I can dream, can't I?", and yet it was obvious he didn't know we were about to play the semi-final.  The massive phoney.

I wouldn't be so bothered if it was any other team, but it's mine so he can fuck right off.

[Singapore Villa]

A cock up by his speech writer.  Simples.  He is a massive douche anyway.

This smug twat who has personally caused my family a considerable amount of distress, not to say cost us a load of money, can fuck off as his support just besmirches my club.

[Nev]

I can't believe that anyone would've fallen for this sort of horse shit anyway. The same goes for a member of the Royal Family supporting Villa.

Patronising wankers.

[Toronto Villa]

Blimey what a nothing story

File in the same folder as MON - 'Vichy C**t'.

Shouldn't words like ****** be reserved for murderers, rapists and pedophiles? As opposed to the leader of the Conservative party. Doesn't make him the anti Christ. He just holds a different view politically to most of us. And he supports Villa. I don't see what the issue is with that either. I'm sure we have loads of fans with varying views on just about everything. As long as those views aren't illegal, then jump on board and they can all enjoy the ride.

Fair enough, but holding a politically different view is not quite the same as dreaming them up and implementing them as law to the detriment of mainly the poorest people in our society.

And he 'supports' Villa? Really?

Yes because Tony Blair was the greatest supporter of the common man wasn't he. Sorry but if you think true socialism exists then you're kidding yourself.

And what can't he support Villa. What is so completely outrageous about that? I've said this before but think of the pelters he'd be getting if came out and said he followed Chelsea or Man U? What's he got to gain by saying he likes us?

Sorry to disagree, mate, and I don't want to turn this into a political debate thread, but my youngest son is disabled and depends on benefits to enable him to live with a degree of independence. The first thing Cameron did was to demonise everyone on benefits, labelling them as lay-in-beds with the curtains shut while everyone else had to work hard. This has directly caused significant additional grief to my son. Cameron in my eyes is a c**t, and I call him as such every time his smug face appears on the TV. Fortunately only my dog has to hear the invectives!

Have a look at the Tories, and their history with regards to Football. Then have another think.
