They downvote based on flair

Not because of what you say

Because you're a fan of a team

It's flaircist!

Yes, he had kinda faded away into obscurity after people disliked him for doing the Brexit referendum and then nope-ing the f*** outta here

But he's been back in the news recently because of some lobbying controversy involving him and the company he now works for
Cameron was still better than his predecessor Gordon brown iirc who wanted nothing to do with the US lol

There was widespread speculation on the nature of the UK's relationship with the US under Brown's government. Brown's close aide Douglas Alexander said in a Washington D.C speech, "In the 21st century, strength should be measured on what we can build together ... we need to demonstrate by our deeds, words and our actions that we are internationalist, not isolationist, multilateralist, not unilateralist, active and not passive, and driven by core values, consistently applied, not special interests". This was widely reported as both a policy shift and a message to the US.[57]

However, Downing Street's spokesman strongly denied the suggestion that Alexander was trying to distance Britain from US foreign policy and show that Britain would not necessarily, in Tony Blair's words, stand "shoulder to shoulder" with George W. Bush over future military interventions.
