Dave Cameron is Irish - and to prove it....a song by The Corrigan Brothers

On December 5th 2005 Debrett’s Peerage released the research that confirmed that current Conservative leader David Cameron is William IV’s great, great, great, great, great grandson. He is related to the 19th-century monarch through Elizabeth FitzClarence, the King’s illegitimate daughter, one of at least ten children he had out of wedlock with Dorothy Jordan, an Irish actress from County Waterford, his long-term mistress, who is in fact Mr Cameron's IV’s great, great, great, great, great grandmonther. The family tree by Debrett’s Peerage, the genealogists, shows that the link between Mr Cameron, 39, and William IV makes him the fifth cousin twice-removed of the Queen.

So Dave Cameron is Irish, Univeral Music and Decca Artists, Ireland's Corrigan Brothers who had an international hit with "There's no one as Irish as Barack Obama" return with:

"There's no one as Irish as Dave Cameron"

Words and music by Corrigan Brothers,Ger,Brian and Donncha Corrigan and Pete Creighton)

Toor a loo toor a loo toor a loo toor a loo
There’s no one as irish as Dave Cameron
Obama and Kennedy
and Eva Peron
There’s no one as Irish
as Dave Cameron

You don’t believe me
But what can you say
Cameron’s as irish
As Galway bay
His grannys great granny
From Waterford town
Dorothy Jordan
Actress of reknown

He’s as irish as New York
On saint Paddys day
The first green tory
To go all the way
He cycles his bike
To work every day
And he’s waiting for Browne
To cycle away
Toor a loo toor a loo toor a loo toor a lon
There’s no one as irish as Dave Cameron

From the mountains of Mourne
To the village of Cong
There’s no one as Irish
as Dave Cameron
his accent is plummy
he learned it at Eton
but inside our David
there’s an irish hear beatin’
he has no time for chancers
villans or rogues
and his favourite band’s
Shane Mcgowan and the Pogues

2010 Downing Street’s green
A paddy will go to
Visit the queen
Good oul queen lizzie
Will be charmed of her feet
An irish prime minister
In Downing Street
Obama and Kennedy
and Eva Peron
There’s no one as Irish
as Dave Cameron
Toor a loo toor a loo toor a loo toor a loo
There’s no one as irish as Dave Cameron
Toor a loo toor a loo toor a loo toor a loo
There’s no one as irish as Dave Cameron
