Forsake. "magna carta" is latin, he went to ETON, he had a privileged education, if he can't even remember this simplest of latin phrases................

MOST [Brits] could correctly answer when 'Magna Carta' was signed. And yet Cameron - the man that dreamt up the
of introducing such banal and topically irrelevant material to the 'Life in the UK Test' - floundered rather embarrassingly on being confronted with this most basic of historical questions.
