FULL SPEECH: David Cameron leaves No 10 for the final time, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dmUiqdrYE8Y, 8 min. 43 secs, published July 13th 2016

British PM's family is with him including his quite young children (3). I did not realize/know that he had young children. For the children the change of home after around 6 years would probably be an emotional issue to overcome. However, they perhaps will get to see more of their Dad now. Cameron refers to his children in the speech including his youngest daughter who got into a red office work box once to try to accompany him on a foreign visit :-) .

Cameron comes across as a pretty decent bloke. His wit and humour in the British Parliament can been be seen in this video, FULL Last PMQs : David Cameron's Final PMQs Prime Minister's Questions -Jeremy Corbyn -UK Parliament, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xE48zBSWuSU, 35 mins.
=======================================

A correspondent wrote over email (and was OK with public sharing):
They lost their severely disabled child Ivan about seven years ago. They both showed admirable courage and understanding about this loss.

Oh! I was not aware of this (or it had not registered). Hmm. These are life changing kind of things.
