How do you think David Cameron has performed as PM?

What is David Cameron’s legacy? As the prime minister prepares to face his valedictory PMQs before handing over to Theresa May on Wednesday, we want your assessments on the would-be Tory moderniser’s six years in power.

Having resigned after failing to convince the British people to vote in favour of remaining in the European Union, Cameron departs No 10 with Britain in the midst of a political crisis. Before Brexit, his record as leader was mixed: he leaves his party in an electorally healthy state, as the first Conservative leader to win a Commons majority for 18 years, after five years in coalition with the Lib Dems.

But other aspects of the Cameron project remain unfulfilled, not least the promise to eradicate the deficit. Early policy ideas like the Big Society never quite became reality, while the Cameron government pushed through controversial reforms in health and education.

Whether you’re a Conservative voter or reside elsewhere in the political spectrum, we want to hear your verdicts on Cameron’s six years in power. How has Cameron’s government affected you personally? How do you think history will remember him?

You can share your thoughts via the form below - we’ll publish a selection of your assessments on the Guardian website tomorrow.
