Jellyfish attacked to British Prime Minister David Cameron on holiday in Spain.

UK PM David Cameron was the victim of a jellyfish attack while on easter holiday with his family in Lanzarote yesterday.  According to a source close to the PM it was a “pretty minor sting and did not require treatment”.

However, the Conservative Party  leader still ran out of the water shouting “Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!” before recovering his composure and making sure his children also left the waves.

Witness Ex-pat Wendy Lambert, 59, said Cameron, 47, was warned by one of her pals about the dangerously high number of jellies in the water.

“But he decided to get back in, then suddenly he came out shouting in pain after getting stung,”

British Prime Minister Cameron had been warned that there were “loads of jellies down there” and this caution had initially made him wary of entering the water.  However, as a keen swimmer, the MP for Witney – where he is patron of the Chipping Norton outdoor lido – overcame his trepidation and launched into the sea, only to exit moments later clutching his arm.

Downing Street sources confirmed to The Sun that Cameron had been stung, but said he had not required treatment – urine-soaked or otherwise.

The jellyfish is likely to be “quite small, but with very long tentacles” according to a local expat, as this type is common near the popular Arrieta beach in Lanzarote.

The Prime Minister David Cameron  returns from his break on Saturday.
