British Prime Minister David Cameron and his family are planning yet another summer holiday in the Algarve this year.
British newspapers The Daily Mail and The Express have reported the PM will be visiting the Algarve in August with wife Samantha and the couple’s four children, after having already spent a holiday in the region in 2013.
At the time, he said the Algarve food was “excellent” and was pictured with his wife buying fish in Aljezur market. A year later, he was photographed yet again at another fish market, this time on the family’s summer holiday in Cascais near Lisbon.
British press poked fun at the shots, saying Cameron was not only wearing almost exactly the same summer outfit as the year before, but that his enthusiasm for fish was “inane”.
The British PM’s six-week summer holiday will also include trips to Cornwall and the Scottish island of Jura this year.

What absolute rubbish you are talking.
And how insulting and rude you are to the Portuguese general public in the first line of your post.
I think you have completely lost the plot mate.
As a Right-wing Tory supporter myself Mr Amber, I hope you yourself are not coming West of Albufeira.
For the record, I think Mr Cameron (the right-wing Tory twat, as you so coursly and inelegantly put it) is doing a fantastic job in shoring up the complete financial disaster he inherited from Gordon Brown & Co.
If Labour's left wing spendthrift politicians had remained in power for much longer, the UK would have ended up in the same financial mess as Greece & Portugal as sure as night follows day.
Which bit of that do you not understand?
And now we hear of the Saudi King having a public beach closed for the weeks he is on holiday at Cannes. Does anyone close the road to the Cameron's gaffe ?
And Cameron's nuclear deterrent. Where is it kept on holiday - under his pillow ? Which raises the question, as Portugal does not have a nuclear deterrent, what is in the briefcase of the uniformed gent following Pres. Cavaco Silva around ?
That months Country Life and maybe Horse and Hound. Ready for when he retires ? Or will he pick a country without an extradition treaty with Portugal ?
There is though another reason we cannot host the Cameron's. We are not licensed. And if not legal. Picture the two of us heaving Cameron, Sam and their kids out the back whilst SEF and Financas goons are kicking in the front door ! Messy.
The EU was complicit in the lies. They knew exactly what the situation with Greece and Portugal was, but chose to support the corrupt elites in both countries for their own ends.
They can holiday anywhere on the planet just as good or better.
Having the Britsih PM and family here justifies several dozen armed supposed Diplomatic Protection Group working 24 / 7 without the interference of the local force or what passes for journalists in Portugal.
Allegedly checking out places for the Cameron's to visit or be seen at. In reality continuing investigations looking for Madeleine.
With an average of 5 trafficking’s a day Portugal has always been wide open to this sort of thing so it cannot come as a surprise to read this.
No doubt, if still PM, same again next year ? (Ret'd copper)
For far too long Portugal has faked being in the EU.
Portugal's 30 year slogan being "Its smart being an idiot".
Totally misleading Brussels and the developed north that it was really attempting to develop itself. That it was following the laws and yet - as we know all too well now - Portugal was light years away from reaching the standard the EU requires.
How could it be otherwise when Portugal entered the EU with entirely the same Salazar period thinking? That the elite are special - 'above the law'. Enforced by the same judges and judiciary and policing that made it so in the old days. Who then trained up the current generation - so no change there !
Exactly what we will continue to see in Greece. Pretence at following laws. Muddled statistics that show "We Greeks are now delivering". Then delays as accurate data is requested by the Troika.
Resulting, in 6 to 12 months time in more euro crisis - this time dragging in Portugal. Ho hum ...
