Surely the leader of a G7 nation should have befitting transport. Can you imagine any other world leaders doing this? Apart from anything else there must be huge security implications.

Man of the people.

[andy-hughes]

Man of the people - saving government money - cynical ploy to look like either of the two former .... delete as appropriate.

Man of the people and Pringles.

[hc4361]

He's coming back from his holidays so he's had to pay for the flight himself

[237SJ]

It`s a shame someone can`t even sit on a plane without some prat filming them. The guy`s entitled to some privacy.

[DTCwordfan]

He doesn't get paid that much as PM - perhaps Tony could bung him some dosh.....?

[EcclesCake]

He's travelling in a private capacity, it's up to him what flights he chooses.

Princes William and Harry have also been seen on Easyjet flights.

[Gromit]

David Cameron is worth more than £4million.

Gatwick to the Algarve on EasyJet costs £29.99.

Perhaps it was to demonstrate how stupid he is?

[retrocop]

Cameron is damned if he does or doesn't. At least he hasn't got delusions of grandeur like his holiness socialists.

Dave practices what he preaches. "We are all in it together"

[Gromit]

These stunts, where politician pretend to be something they are not, have a nasty habit of rebounding.

Remember Gordon Brown claiming to be an avid Artic Mokeys fan, or Cameron's previous gaffe by pretending to be green by cycling to work, except his chauffeur driven Bentley followed him all the way with his briefcase on board.

Not to mention bacon butties!!

[Bazile]

Perhaps the yanks could loan him one of the air force 1's , at a reasonable rate , given the ' special relationship '

Oh no , i forget they use the second one as a decoy

[Mamyalynne]

So basically, whatever mode of transport he used some of you would have a pop.

Got it.

[youngmafbog]

Perhaps he is just a tight git?

And as retro point out, damned if he does damned if he doesn't. Just what would you lefties be happy with?

Have to agree with TTT on the security thing. I wouldn't want to be on a plane with him or any other politician!

[vulcan42]

Perhaps the flight times just suited his plans.

[237SJ]

"I wouldn`t want to be on a plane with him or any other politician" I was on a plane with Benazir Bhutto once which did make me feel slightly uneasy given the amount of people who wanted to bump her off.

[mikey4444]

Couldn't Betty have loaned him one of her Queens Flight ?
