Member of the House of Lords
David Cameron, who served as the UK Prime Minister from 2010 to 2016, made a surprising return to government in November 2023 when he was appointed Foreign Secretary under Prime Minister Rishi Sunak. To take on the role, he was granted a peerage, becoming Lord Cameron of Chipping Norton, and took a seat in the House of Lords. His tenure as Foreign Secretary lasted until July 2024, during which he played a key role in shaping the UK’s foreign policy and diplomatic relations.
Murdoch Scandal: Cameron Demanded to Come Clean Over Ties with Media Mogul
- Sunday, 31 July 2011
Labour has called on Prime Minister David Cameron to "come clean" over his dealings with the Murdoch family amid the phone-hacking scandal. The party sent letters to Cabinet ministers containing 50 unanswered questions, including what discussions Cameron had with James or Rupert Murdoch and Rebekah Brooks about their attempt to take full control of BSkyB. Labour is also seeking answers on Andy Coulson’s arrest and whether Cameron spoke to him after his arrest. Shadow culture secretary Ivan Lewis stated that the signs suggest Cameron still does not get it, implying that he has failed to put a proper distance between himself and senior News Corp executives during the consideration of the BSkyB bid.
