Cameron mocked on twitter for forgetting his football team

April 25, 2015 by De'Graft Mensah Leave a Comment

Just about everyone seems to be raising an eyebrow towards supposed Aston Villa supporter David Cameron in his recent blunder in South London, where he forgot the very football team he supports and even went as far enough to get the crowd to support the very different, West Ham.

The PM blamed his mistake on a “brain fade” later on in his speech on ethnic minorities in Croydon, but that was not enough to keep the tweeting prospective MPs at bay.

 

Hey David Cameron.. I’m off to see that football team I support this afternoon. Name escapes me.. they play in yellow… Watford?

This isn’t the first time that @David_Cameron has forgotten who he’s meant to support. When he’s in Scotland he supports the SNP #villagate
