Did the Camerons cocaine habit cause their child's cerebral palsy?

Did the Camerons cocaine habit cause their child's cerebral palsy?


There is a link between David Cameron and cocaine. There is also a link between cocaine and cerebral palsy. David and Samantha Cameron have a son called Ivan who has cerebral palsy.


Stephen Pound, the Labour MP for Ealing North, said: ‘I would have thought that if there was one thing that MPs have learned over the years, it is that if they use their children it will come back to haunt them’.

Do the Camerons really want to make financial and political capital out of this?

    jailhouselawyer,

    Lack of oxygen at birth is a known factor in cerebral disorder/malfunction.

    John,

    A friend's second child was similarly affected. Long, difficult labour left her too exhausted to cope with final phase; had begged for a caesarian, but was made to wait. She nearly died and her son was oxygen starved.

  3. Have you even read your links? Any links that exist between cocaine and pregnancy (and I rather doubt that Cameron has taken crack cocaine - which you link to) are maternal. So are accusing Samantha Cameron of taking cocaine during pregnancy (in which case, hello libel action!)or are you going to retract this?

    FWIW I also commented on Bob Piper's, because this is really not on.

  4. TimJ: It's just not cricket is it? I did read the links. Is libel one of those things one attaches to one's suitcase when one goes on holiday? Retract? No. Actually, that really is on spelled backwards.

  5. So, just to be straight, your accusation is that Samantha Cameron took cocaine while pregnant? I'd accuse you of a lack of ethics, but that would just be redundant wouldn't it?

  6. TimJ: It's quite possible it was self inflicted, it's also quite possible to be another factor.
