» Monday, November 6, 2006Press Conference
Asked by the editor of BBC On-line why the Prime Minister was so irritable this morning at the press conference the PMOS responded by saying the journalists had been rude in the way they had questioned the Prime Minister. The PMOS went on to say that he considered people interrupting answers to be rude. Asked if that meant there was an understanding that journalists were not allowed to ask supplementary questions the PMOS replied that that was generally the basis on which the press conferences had worked in the past, but it was up to the Prime Minister if he wished to take a supplementary question. But that was not the same as repeated interruptions mid-answer. Briefing took place at 6:00 | Search for related news Original PMOS briefings are © Crown Copyright.
