DAVID Cameron’s office has come under fire for photoshopping this picture of the UK Prime Minister.
The Mirror reports the photo, uploaded late yesterday, has obviously been changed, with a poppy added to the Prime Minister’s lapel.
The photoshop fail has caused anger among followers of Downing Street’s Facebook page.
The poppy has been used since 1921 to commemorate soldiers who have died during war, and its symbolism is taken extremely seriously within the UK especially.
It’s believed the original portrait of Mr Cameron, which remains in a picture gallery on the page, was taken in 2013.
“That poppy is as fake as your care for ‘the strivers who get up at 8am every day and work and provide,” one angry social media user said.
“Fire your graphic designer and your cabinet.”
Number 10 Downing Street have responded saying the offending picture has been removed and that “It was an oversight.
