You can unilaterally cutlist that. A politician should never have a YMMV page unless they're an author.

On a related note, the main page needs to be migrated to Useful Notes and get its trope list surgically removed... that is, if we want the page at all. Can someone else have a look at it? Starting with the nicknames at the top, the entire article isn't exactly providing a neutral commentary, and I don't know enough about this person to rewrite it.

Just zorch it or someone want to try to salvage it?

I put the YMMV page on the cutlist, as YMMV pages for real people aren't allowed. I also pruned almost all of the examples on his main page, as only one of them actually applied to his portrayal in media. I'm not sure that we actually need a page on him, but I don't want to put his main page on the cutlist unilaterally.

^^ Well, it seems that Irrose beat me to it.

EDIT: On the subject of British politicians it seems that David Cameron has many tropes listed that have nothing to do with his portrayal in media. And a YMMV page, to boot.

Edited by LogoP It is sometimes an appropriate response to reality to go insane.

^I sentenced the YMMV page to death for its crimes.
