DAVID Cameron\u2019s return as Foreign Secretary marks an extraordinary comeback for a politician widely believed to be yesterday\u2019s man.<\/p>\n
After calling and losing the Brexit referendum in 2016, he fell on his sword to quit both as PM and an MP.<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
For a while he appeared to have vanished without trace – famously provoking a foul-mouthed rant from Danny Dyer as having left the country in the lurch with his \u201ctrotters up\u201d.<\/p>\n
His only glimpse of the limelight was negative headlines surrounding his relationship with dodgy financier Lex Greensill.<\/p>\n
But Mr Cameron, 57, had retired as one of youngest ex-PMs in history – and clearly felt he had more to give when he told pals in 2018 he was \u201cbored s***less\u201d.<\/p>\n
Allies even suggested he could become Foreign Secretary – an offer now grasped years later by Rishi Sunak.<\/p>\n The PM will hope to draw on his wealth of experience, often overshadowed by his legacy-defining Brexit gamble.<\/p>\n After a period as a government adviser in the John Major years, Cameron rose the ranks in opposition to become Tory leader in 2005.<\/p>\n He secured the most votes in 2010 but fell short of a full-out majority, striking a coalition deal with Nick Clegg\u2019s Lib Dems.<\/p>\n His tenure was marked by spending cuts to slash Britain's deficit – critically known as austerity – bombing Libya, gay marriage and two referendums on voting reform and Scottish independence.<\/p>\n But under pressure from Nigel Farage's Ukip, he will forever be known for to calling the historic EU referendum in 2016.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n Sneaking a narrow Tory majority and cutting the Lib Dems loose in 2015, Mr Cameron held the in\/out vote the following summer.<\/p>\n During the campaign he angered Brexiteer Tories for scaremongering with \u201cProject Fear\u201d doomsday warnings about leaving. <\/p>\n And so when the people went the other way, Mr Cameron felt he had no choice but to quit, waving goodbye to No10 with his wife Samantha and three children.<\/p>\n For a while it seemed he was content with the quite life from his Oxfordshire shepherd's hut.<\/p>\n But now he is back in the thick of it as Britain's most senior diplomat. <\/p>\n<\/picture>CAMERON YEARS <\/span><\/p>\n
