Talk:Political positions of David Cameron

message: This article has been neglected for a long time so has now become outdated, this is especially challenging when Cameron's government is often changing or modifying its stance on various issues: Cameron is always making new pledges and his political position is in a state a flux. 
This makes it imperative to regularly update this article, however not enough contributers seem willing to do this and this is partly because significantly far fewer people are aware of its exsistence compared with the David Cameron article, meaning it is harder for it to get the attention it needs to stay accurate and relevant. Therefore I am suggesting we merge this article with the main David Cameron article. Reaganomics88 (talk) 20:38, 17 August 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Strong Oppose Just because the article needs updating does not justify its merger. There is no way this can all fit at his WP:BLP. AusLondonder (talk) 03:38, 17 September 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Oppose The subject matter is notable enough to deserve inclusion and it's clearly impractical to shoehorn it all into the main article. Even parts of the existing main David Cameron article suffers to an extent from lack of attention, so an attempted merge would not resolve the problem of parts of it becoming outdated Dtellett (talk) 07:02, 27 September 2015 (UTC)

text: Oppose A notable subject matter, and it would make an already long article much longer. This is Paul (talk) 21:01, 20 December 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: The article's proposal to be merged with David Cameron wins my favour as there is no concrete purpose within this article. The entire article is simply an except of Cameron's biography as to political positions. It lacks a clear with some of the points already mentioned in David Cameron. This article has no basis to be continued in its current form. Vormeph (talk) 21:18, 13 January 2016 (UTC)

replies: text: Yeah, if anyone would like to write one. The only reason this article is so extensive is becuase it was split from the parent article David Cameron due to length. Gordon Brown hasn't _quite_ reached that stage yet, I think, but maybe soon. DWaterson 01:45, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

message: I don't think it is a good idea to put so much information about his scandals in an article about his political views. e.g. Bicycle controversy.

message: Why is he referred to having a "pro-life" position. He clearly has a "pro-abortion" position as documented by the SPUC.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.179.222.28 (talk) 03:15, 21 May 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Abortion 

message: Did David Cameron really lift the lifetime ban on gay men giving blood? If this happened when he was Prime Minister I'm sure it was a decision taken by the NBS and not the Prime Minister.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.13.221.33 (talk) 16:49, 11 December 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Gay Rights 

message: the oldest and Anglican male heir ->  the oldest Anglican male heir.   Don't use "and" unless the adjectives are in the same degree. P.S. there's no such word as "Anglicanest".
The changes swept away hundreds of years of convention and will be free to marry a Roman Catholic -> The changes swept away hundreds of years of convention and he/she will be free to marry a Roman Catholic.   The changes are not people and so they can't marry anyone. 
Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg thrashed out the details of the new law, and said at the time that it would "bring to an end centuries of discrimination against women".  Is this a comma splice?  In any case, it's shite.

message: I propose to either remove completely or at least reduce to 10% this section, since it wanders far from the subject of the article.  All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 18:15, 28 June 2015 (UTC)
