The article also added injury to insult,they posted a photo of Cameron with his daughter,a beautiful photo under normal circumstances,but salt in the wound of many million's of father's whom are unable to do this,he could have used today on expanding on what he learnt from his Father,and what made the father/son special for him,but what we got was a photo of him kissing his father,in the way Judas kissed Jesus and mubbled something about responsibility.

He's unlikely to face the same fate as so many fathers because he's a very, very powerful man - and women like powerful men. It must be so nice to be so up your own arse like he is. Still, as long as he keeps pandering to women's vote, he'll be happy.

He will refer to this article on his sympathy with single mother's,when he say's he will have to reduce their payment's in single parent benefits,which will have to come,as the country is bankrupt and cannot afford to play daddy any more,and is looking for money from the real one's,he also need's to recognise,that he is also on state benefits,the reason his children are being fed is because we pay him,and so far, in any real job,he would have been sacked,for gross incompetance.

What a peice of shit this asshole his, mark my words people one day some mangian scum bag poltiction is going to insult father on their day and some poor man who had his kids taken away from him will go postal on his or her's ass and rightly so.

I was just about to write in disgust to Cameron. Fortunately, I took the time to read up on what he'd actually said.

It is worth reading the entire text of what Cameron said, rather than just the headline that some anti-Cameron journalist dreamt up based on a snippet of what he said.
David Cameron: Dad's gift to me was his optimism - Telegraph

About 8% is about runaway Dads, the rest is rather good. Not that I expect much from his party other than rhetoric but what he said - overall - is mostly positive.

I would simply ask for your honest answer to this question;
Would he ever make a mention of incompetent/deadbeat/absent mothers on Mother's Day, and that they should be treated like drunk drivers?

I don't know. Since coming to power, some individual Tory party members have been outspoken against feminism. There have been speeches in Parliament against women abandoning babies. It's possible that he would, yes.

It would have been better if Cameron had kept his entire speech positive, no doubt about it. But the BBC article ignores the positive and concentrates on the negative, which is media bias out of proportion with Cameron's text.

What would have been nice is if he'd said more about the 'forced away' Dads and at least made politicians' promises to correct that issue.

I know of several fathers personally where the mothers just upped and left (one left for a more financially solvent sucker, another because her children were a hindrance to partying, the other for some foreign gigolo). Although they are lesser in number, shouldn't they too be shamed?

I believe what many describe as 'runaway fathers' are actually alienated fathers, men used as sperm donors, men who aren't even aware they are fathers and women who choose to live alone (mainly because the last government deliberately penalized and incentivized women to live apart from the fathers). It's a complicated picture and to generalize as Cameron has done for political gain isn't constructive and is thoroughly shameful of him to do so on fathers day.

Erin Pizzey is spot on in her remarks in the attached video.

For Labour, shadow home secretary Yvette Cooper said Mr Cameron's words were "hollow".

"His government is making it much easier for deadbeat dads to run from their responsibilities by charging mums to use the Child Support Agency," she said.

"And now he wants to reward runaway dads who remarry with a marriage tax break, whilst still cutting tax credits for the mums left behind holding the baby."

Notice how the odious feminist displays her clear resentment about measures to make families a more attractive prospect for fathers.

The Labour party are truly hellbent on destroying the traditional family in it's totality until there's nothing left but social desolation.

Thank you Douglas for the full text. I also took it to be father-friendly.

I also understand that he's a politician that can't be too outspoken. It's difficult for any man to effect change when he's walking on eggshells in a feminist world.

He missed an opportunity though,

So on this Father’s Day, let’s embrace and celebrate the responsibilities we have.

He should have been addressing that message to women. Men already understand.

I would like to know if anyone has made an estimate of how many runaways fathers grew up fatherless themselves?
I would like to know if the courts have made them fatherless through a highly biased divorce in favour of the mother?

Before starting to point fingers at fathers, all facts must be known to all parties.

Here's a good piece by Melanie Phillips about what Cameron said about 'runaway dads.'

Family breakdown is driven by single mothers on benefits as well as absent fathers | Mail Online

This is old thactherism all over again!!!!!
Margaret thacther was hell bent in persecuting all runaway fathers in order to extort moneis from them and hence, reducing the burden of supporting single mothers by the benefits agency.
That was the eighties!!!
Today, single motherhod has trebled but the attacks to the integrity of the family has not subsided.
Quote "To single out these boys for censure — while calling lone mothers ‘heroic’, as Mr Cameron did — is not only unfair and perverse, but will fail to get to grips with the problem.

It is a classic conservative trying to get to grips with the consecuences rather than the causes of these perverse and unfair blame apportioning on men and boys.

The prime minister simply, does not have the courage of clawing the beast by the neck and kill it, just as all those who preceded him did not for fear of the feminazi waging their whip.
