Reception

The New Statesman described the mini-series as "a parade of entitlement, cowardice and careerism".[2] Writing in The Times, Hugo Rifkind said of the former Prime Minister, "his poshness is in another league".[3]

The Independent's Sean O'Grady wrote "He [David Cameron] is destined to be eternally friendless. He certainly comes across as very lonely and despondent in The Cameron Years".[1]
