English 'United' Against Mitt Romney, David Cameron Reported To Have Said

It's a good thing for Mitt Romney the English do not have a vote in American elections, as they are "united" against him becoming the next president of the United States, David Cameron is reported to have said.

Speaking to the BBC's Marr programme on Sunday, American film producer Harvey Weinstein claimed the prime minister made the observation in the wake of the Republican candidate's gaffe-prone visit to London in July.

"Mitt Romney has that unique distinction of uniting all of England against him with his various remarks," Cameron is said to have told a group of people including Weinstein.

Romney's visit to UK singlehandedly increased anti-American sentiment 100%.
