Fugitive whistleblower Edward Snowden has perfectly summed up David Cameron's attitude to the Panama Papers revelations.

Yesterday, the Prime Minister wouldn't answer questions over his family's use of tax havens

Mr Cameron's father, Ian, paid no UK duty for 30 years on a firm run from the Bahamas.

When asked if any Cameron cash was hidden in offshore accounts, Downing St replied: Thats a private matter.

But last night, Mr Snowden, who has heavily criticised the UK's push for mass government snooping on emails and browsing histories , pointed out the PM's hypocrisy.

He tweeted, simply: "Oh, now he's interested in privacy."

Mr Cameron's father, who died in 2010, was a director of Blairmore Holdings Inc. The investment fund hired a bishop to allegedly help it avoid paying UK tax .

Furious anti-tax avoidance campaigners and critics last night demanded the PM come clean about his familys riches.

Labour MP Jess Phillips said: If hes not sure then he should find out and rectify it as soon as possible. While tax affairs for ordinary people are a private matter, he is a Prime Minister who has committed to stamping out tax avoidance.
