Miscellaneous unsigned comments

Likely created in response to articles such as this: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-14115047 in today's press. The term is used sparingly with no concrete definition and not yet justifiable of its own article, in my opinion.

The term has been widely known in British politics for a long time, see below. An article on its own is definately justified. It will inevitably evolve along David Cameron's various U-turns but that is not the article's fault but David's.

Proposal for removal

I propose removing this page from the top-down. Here are my Reasons:

1. It is propaganda David Cameron is still in office as of 12/3/2015, and creating a page detailing this so-called 'Cameronism' only aims to indignify his policies which in during election time doesn't make sense to have. The only Reason this page existed in the first place is due to the coinage of the term 'Cameronism' in the foresaid BBC article, which is state-owned and controlled by the British Government. This page has no Reason to exist, and should therefore be voted for removal.

2. Too many insider-sources. The majority of sources citing Cameronism are repetitive in the sources that are used. I've seen references to the BBC one too many times which again upholds bias towards Cameron and his Government.

3. The page doesn't even detail anything regarding Cameronism! This page is really just a copy and paste from David Cameron's wikipedia page and is only detailing his opinions and views, rather than explaining the effects thereof. If you compare Cameronism to Thatcherism on wikipedia, you can clearly see why Cameronism as a concept clearly doesn't fit in and accumulate well given that he hasn't even spent even a full term as prime minister; whereas Thatcher has and the article was created well after her resignation as prime minister.

However, for sake of leniency, given Cameron's eurosceptism and the fact his Government contributed to Britain's recovery from recession under the previous Government; any deliberation as to the effects of Cameronism with respect to this term of his Government ought to be detailed. Otherwise, this page is simply a section of his biography and does not contain any relevant information as to his policies and effects which stipulates the very purpose of this page.
