The Daily Mail is turning on Dave more and more each day..must be they are getting heat from readers.
The hypocrisy is underlined by columnist after columnist (clearly given the greenlight to do so).
This one is - in many parts- what I used to only read in North and Booker.

With all his bluster about providing opportunity for all, you’d think Cameron would be embarrassed about selling hedge fund job experience to the sons and daughters of party supporters to boost its funds. But he got into politics via this cosy, insiders’ club route himself.
After leaving Oxford, the banker’s son became an ‘adviser’ to Tory Chancellor Norman Lamont. In other words, blue-chip work experience.
The Mail is almost gunning to get him out

As a child of privilege — Eton, Oxford, the Bullingdon Club and fast-tracked into the Treasury — he knows intimately how the ruling class of Britain operates, who to contact, which favours to call in.
So he had two choices when he came into politics: go with the flow and do everything in his power to entrench the privileges he enjoyed, or use his inside knowledge of them to dismantle arrangements that are unfair to outsiders.
The shifty arrangements he made to keep secret the auction of City internships at his Black and White Party suggest he’s still a Bullingdon boy at heart, a keep-it-all-in-the-family phoney whose Big Society is little more than a PR exercise
