He fast-tracked David Cameron into the Lords and appointed him Foreign Secretary – an act of such folly that even some ardent Tories recoiled when it was announced.
Here is Stephen Daisley, a columnist for the Scottish Daily Mail, writing in The Spectator: “This is a man with astonishingly rotten political judgement. The passage of time and the absurdities and indignities of the last seven years may have had a Lethean effect on our collective consciousness, but Cameron was a fount of error and ineptitude in government. Like all public schoolboys, he deploys that Jedi mind trick to convince the hoi polloi he is calm, in charge and following a plan. In fact, he is like so many of his class, a chancer.”
