David Cameron has chaired his last ever, emotional, Cabinet meeting this morning, with just a final Prime Minister’s Questions lying between him and freedom. He may want to follow the example of Tony Blair and have a memorable sign off such as ‘and that is that, the end’, though it’s not clear whether he’ll find quite so many MPs keen to give him a standing ovation as he walks out, the Prime Minister who accidentally took Britain out of the European Union.
But what Cameron chooses to do next is interesting. He has already said that he wants to stand again as MP for Witney in 2020. Of course, the way MPs are able to write their own job descriptions means that he can also go off and earn plenty of money and do lots of interesting things outside of Parliament as well as serving his constituency.
