After Cameron’s final bow at the despatch box, relive his greatest hits
He had flair for a one-liner and a knack for playing to the backbenches
AS political buffs butt heads over David Cameron’s legacy, one thing they can all agree on is he has been one of the great Commons entertainers.
Unlike Gordon Brown before him, Mr Cameron has always relished the battle of wits across the despatch box and has more often than not had the beating of is opposite man.
In his six years some of his jokes even had Labour MPs in stiches, but his mouth and Flashman alter ego have also run him into some hot water.
We relive some of his most entertaining Commons moments
Pleasuring Mrs Bone
Early into his premiership, clean cut Mr Cameron drew hysterical laughter from MPs when he joked he spent too much time “trying to give pleasure to Mrs Bone”.
Luckily Tory MP Peter Bone seemed to take the gag in good spirit.
Calm down dear
Stealing Michael Winner’s irritating line, Mr Cameron landed himself in hot water with female MPs when he told an irate Angela Eagle to “calm down dear”.
He was accused of “sexism” by Labour, but it didn’t stop Ed Miliband mouthing it at him for weeks to come across the Chamber.
Shut up and listen to the answers
When Ed Balls wasn’t speaking at the despatch box, he was speaking from a sedantry position – much to Mr Cameron’s annoyance.
Mid answer Mr Cameron paused to tell the shadow Chancellor to “shut up” calling him the “most annoying man in modern politics”.
Balls on a plate
His vendetta against chatty Mr Balls continued when he ribbed the shadow chancellor over his job security, saying “you don’t need it to be Christmas when you’re sitting next to a Turkey”.
Do up your tie and sing the national anthem
As Jeremy Corbyn tried to drive a wedge between the PM and his mother over austerity cuts, Mr Cameron turned his withering gaze on the Labour leader’s dress sense: “Put on a proper suit, do up your tie and sing the national anthem.”
Core support Corbyn
With his party split over Europe, the PM used a leaked list of MPs hostile to Mr Corbyn against the Labour leader in PMQs declaring himself “core support”.
“For heaven’s sake man go”
With the EU referendum lost, a beaten Mr Cameron joined the chorus of calls urging Mr Corbyn to step aside for the good of the country.
His voice breaking, he shouted across the despatch box: “For heaven’s sake man, go.”
