Britain’s Prime Minister David Cameron left his eight-year-old daughter in a pub after he had enjoyed an afternoon meal with his family and two other families.

The Prime Minister lunched with his wife and three children at The Plough in Cadsen, Bucks before taking his eye off his eldest daughter Nancy.

After the meal, the family gathered their belongings and Mr Cameron hopped into a car with his bodyguards while his wife Samantha followed behind with their younger children Elwen, six and Florence, 22 months.

Mr Cameron assumed that his daughter Nancy was in the car with his wife while Samantha Cameron thought Nancy had decided to leave in her father’s car.

When both cars pulled up to Chequers, two miles away, the Camerons realised she wasn’t with them and immediately rushed to telephone the pub whose staff assured them that Nancy had been found alone in the lavatory and was being taken care of.

Mr Cameron jumped into the car and made a beeline for the pub where he was reunited with his daughter 15 minutes later.

Downing Street has confirmed that the incident happened after a Sunday lunch but did not give a time or date.

Britons are puzzled at how the Prime Minister could forget his daughter in a pub and wonder why the security officials did not carry out a simple head count. In an age where terrorists often target Western leaders, it also raises questions about Britain’s internal security apparatus.
