Although they were trying to say David Cameron had called IS evil, the way they presented it left it open to interpretation.
Channel 4 were reporting on the Conservative Party Conference that is currently being held in Birmingham.
David Cameron was delivering his speech which used NHS spending promises as one of it's most important pledges.
The slip was quickly picked up on by Twitter users rushing to agree with Channel 4's mistake.

@Channel4News rephrase that. David Cameron is pure evil. Simple

@Channel4News Did anyone else read that as David Cameron is evil pure and simple? A bit harsh I thought, but I know many who would agree.The Conservative Party Conference goes on. White Dee courted controversy recently by saying she would be voting for UKIP rather than the Tories.

.... cold, cruel and calculating Dalek robot? That was a brilliant (and crucial) connection to draw and disseminate. Why? Because it is a little-known fact that mechanical ass-clowns are among the worst ass-clowns imaginable, and must be watched closely, at all times, lest they do widespread naughtiness.
Well, it would appear the various evil, heartless and utterly rotten things happening in the UK government are suddenly starting to make a lot more sense now......... ;-)
