David Cameron may be considering a return to frontline politics, it was reported today.

The former prime minister apparently confided that he was bored two years after resigning following the Brexit referendum and would like a spell as foreign secretary.

A friend of the 52-year-old suggested he would like to join the Cabinet after a new Tory leader succeeds Theresa May.

The source told The Sun: “David is dedicated to public service and has often said he wouldn’t rule out a public role, domestically or internationally. He is still a young man.”

The newspaper added that Mr Cameron was aware that any return would have to wait until “some time” after the publication of his memoirs, which is expected next year.
