Life size cut outs of David Cameron, Nick Clegg and Boris Johnson advertised on Amazon are attracting the ire of voters in the reviews section of the site.<\/p>\n

Some of the comments have clearly been made tongue-firmly in cheek, with one customer saying the Nick Clegg statuette is “entirely unreliable” and “unexpectedly came with a David Cameron Lifesize Cardboard Cutout Standee which has wreaked havoc in my home.”<\/p>\n

The “buyer” added: “Also, I keep getting bills sent to me saying I owe money to cover the costs of Cameron, whom I never ordered. They are threatening to annex my closets as bedrooms and cut my wages if i don’t comply.”<\/p>\n

The David Cameron Lifesize Cardboard Cutout fares even worse on the site, with the cutout associated with the tags bell end, liar, thief, hated, toff, tory.<\/p>\n

Another wrote “I did not order this product. A few years ago I, along with thousands of like-minded people, ordered a Nick Clegg thinking it might make a nice change. But despite this, a David Cameron turned up instead. I tried to complain, but was told I must keep the Cameron for five years before I could consider changing it.”<\/p>\n

Another wrote: “I was very upset as I thought I had ordered a new one but it came with absolutely hundreds of what seemed to be very unnecessary cuts.”<\/p>\n

There were some reviews where it was difficult to ascertain whether the customer was joking or genuinely reviewing the product.<\/p>\n

“This product (once you have worked out how to set it up with exceedingly complicated instructions) is hilarious.<\/p>\n

The photograph is a bit dark and his skin is a very unhealthy colour and it breaks easily at the sides but it is a great novelty present.”<\/p>\n
