Cameron's a right plonker

By John Hirst

"TORY leader David Cameron was accused of a blunder yesterday after comparing the PM to telly?s Del Boy Trotter.

Mr Cameron said Gordon Brown had acted like the Only Fools And Horses wideboy in a Commons bust-up over the cost of saving Northern Rock.

He said: ?It?s like a used car salesman who won?t tell you the price, won?t tell you the mileage, won?t give you a warranty. You?ve gone from prudence to Del Boy.?

But Labour MPs pointed out that Del did not flog used cars".

That was, of course, Boycie played by John Challis in the series. Perhaps, if Dave did not addle his brain with cocaine he might not become so befuddled?
