To turn up looking like a tramp is showing clear disrespect to all the fallen.

It is funny or clever, it is a disgrace.

GagaJo Sat 13-Nov-21 11:46:50

Agree. Much as I'm not a Tory supporter, Cameron always looked very smart.

I suppose he has got a jacket on and is wearing a poppy and hasn't got his tie tucked in, sleeves rolled up and shirt half hanging out as in his hospital visit the other day.
Is that jacket linen? It's badly creased.

I am trying to be positive but it is difficult.

Calistemon Sat 13-Nov-21 11:50:48

He hasn't got the leaf of the poppy at 11 o'clock either.

No clue, has he.

There stands a man who tried to claim £16.50 on expenses for a poppy wreath.

MerylStreep Sat 13-Nov-21 11:56:13

Does Carrie never see him before he leaves the house?
Disgraceful ?

Josianne Sat 13-Nov-21 11:58:08

I saw this and laughed.

It’s his look isn’t it??
Still, he is wearing a suit.
Not an anorak.

Calistemon Sat 13-Nov-21 12:03:03

I don't think I'd mind if he bought a couple of well-fitted Savile Row suits and put them on expenses as he is representing this country!

Or even M&S tailoring ?

Scones Sat 13-Nov-21 12:05:16

I hear the phrase 'Penny for the guy' when I look at that photo.

lemongrove Sat 13-Nov-21 12:05:50

Sadly M&S have stopped doing mens suits, or so I heard.
I bet they are Savile Row .....it’s just his shape.I empathise with him there!?

silverlining48 Sat 13-Nov-21 12:07:24

It’s not a good look though is it? He is our prime minister and should have some pride. He lets us all down ( in so many ways).

Who wore an anorak?

Germanshepherdsmum Sat 13-Nov-21 12:15:00

He probably does wear Savile Row tailoring but is one of those people who always look scruffy whatever they wear. Even if he had a decent haircut he’d still look like a sack of potatoes. However he wasn’t voted in for his impeccable fashion sense and make model looks was he?

Riverwalk Sat 13-Nov-21 12:16:04

Those clenched fists again!

He looks awful - so bad I thought the photo might have been doctored.

Riverwalk Sat 13-Nov-21 12:17:34

That Benny Hill look - all part of his charm hmm

Calistemon Sat 13-Nov-21 12:30:17

In a way I do have some sympathy as I always manage to look like a sack of potatoes however hard I try.
My hair is "difficult" too!

GrannyGravy13 Sat 13-Nov-21 12:37:00

Some folks are just born unkempt and how ever hard they try will never look polished.

As for the leaf of his poppy being in the wrong position, according to the Royal British Legion there is no right or wrong way to wear your poppy, we are just grateful people wear them

Clearly someone else has not got a clue!

His dress sense is abysmal but on this point you are incorrect.

Scruffy oik

Carrie you need to sort your man out.

BlueBelle Sat 13-Nov-21 12:52:53

It’s disrespectful because he doesn’t try He thinks it makes him adorable and ‘one of the people’ but he’s a disgrace
If he’s got unkempt flyaway hair he could keep it short and neat If he’s a bad shape he needs someone to suggest the right clothes (suit) for his shape or better still don’t eat so much and go to the gym
The rest of his family (like them or loath them) are all well dressed and neat and tidy he does it on purpose You don’t have to look a mess just because you have a bigger figure you just have to try a bit harder
I have a close friend who is a size 24 but always looks so lovely she wears clothes that suit her larger figure her hair and make up always look perfect a very pretty older large lady

Who wore an anorak?

Jeremy Corbin I think

Teacheranne Sat 13-Nov-21 13:04:29

Or even Jeremy Corbyn.

eazybee Sat 13-Nov-21 13:29:21

I don't see any lack of respect. He is wearing a collar and tie, his jacket is buttoned, he is standing to attention and as he is outside there is a breeze blowing, ruffling his hair, even.
Fashion plate, never.
