David Cameron: Man of faith
DAVID Cameron has spoken frankly about his faith in God and his dread of losing another child.
The Tory leader also said he was determined to maintain a "normal" family lifestyle if he won the next general election.
But he displayed his ruthless streak by insisting he would not hesitate to sack shadow chancellor George Osborne, or other senior colleagues, if they were not up to the job.
In an interview with the Evening Standard, Mr Cameron said: "If you are asking, do I drop to my knees and pray for guidance, no," he said. "But do I have faith and is it important, yes."
Questioned about his fears, Mr Cameron – whose disabled son Ivan died aged six earlier this year – said that the biggest one was of something happening to his family.
