Cameron is said to be a keen deer stalker who takes family holidays on a Scottish Island, teeming with wildlife, that he kills! Well deer anyway.

"one of the few skilled enough to shoot two stags in one go. Mr Cameron ... goes shooting on a 20,000-acre estate, which is owned by his wife Samantha’s stepfather, Viscount Astor."

So what if he shot and killed a dear? So long as it was quickly killed and he used it for food that is fine by me.
