David Cameron in line to be UK’s candidate for head of Nato after Britain leaves the EU
The former Prime Minister is already raking in the cash for speeches, but No 10 plays down reports of a new role

DAVID Cameron is in line to be the UK's candidate for the next head of Nato.
Officials believe the former Prime Minister could be a successful candidate for the position of Secretary General at the defence organisation.
Mr Cameron stepped down as an MP in September after resigning as PM when he lost the referendum.
He is currently raking in the cash by giving after-dinner speeches - he was allegedly paid over £120,000 for just an hour's talk earlier this year.
The role comes with a salary of £220,000, significantly more than he was earning as Prime Minister.
Allies of Mr Cameron say he would be up for taking a job on the world stage, and he wants the UK to play a big role in security after Brexit.
Britain has held the position three times, and officials think the UK's best shot at getting one of their own in again is by putting up a well-known figure.
The current Nato boss, former Norwegian prime minister Jens Stoltenberg, will finish his term in either 2018 or 2019.
