A great frost has fallen on the United Kingdom; carried on the breath of the Prime Minister, David Cameron.
And David is especially unimpressed by Christmas. At a time of year when peace and goodwill should reign supreme, cruelty and prejudice sit enthroned; bringing, instead of joy - persecution to the poor, vilification to the vulnerable and subjugation to the sick.
But despair not, ye persons who are kind of heart, for lo and behold! Christmas is also a time when warm and gentle winds move through the world - winds that carry spirits who can bring about a thaw in even the iciest of hearts….
One fateful Christmas Eve, a strange encounter with a tortured and remorseful Margaret Thatcher sets in motion a series of ghostly meetings that bring David face to face with the terrible consequences of his actions as Prime Minster. But will it be enough to bring about a change in the most stubborn of men?
A Christmas Cameron is a contemporary reworking of Dickens’ classic tale of yuletide transformation. If a character as miserly as Ebenezer Scrooge can be redeemed through empathy and compassion, then let us pray, for all our sakes, that the same is true for Prime Minister Cameron!
