Marr’s in the Leftie gang

ANDREW MARR makes an extraordinary, on-air apology on BBC1 to david Cameron for suggesting the Prime Minister ‘loved’ fox hunting, saying: ‘You may have noticed the Prime Minister looked mildly disconcerted when I put to him a quote about his views on fox hunting. Well, not surprisingly. It turns out he never said it. We can’t expect politicians to apologise and then not do it ourselves, can we? Sorry.’ What’s the fuss about? Cameron wrote a piece for Countryside Alliance magazine promising a free vote on hunting. He didn’t say he loved the sport, but it’s fair to presume he supports it. He’s certainly not on the ‘anti’ side of the argument, which Marr’s apology might suggest. Maybe it’s because Marr is a BBC Leftie, as Boris Johnson suggested to him yesterday. BoJo said the economy was ‘going gangbusters’; Marr said he meant ‘gang-masters’. Guilty as charged!
