In response to the question of what the Prime Minister thought about the job cuts in the BBC, the PMS said that the Prime Minister thought it was a matter for the BBC governors. Put that this was not what the Leader of the House had just said, the PMS replied that he had not seen what the Leader of the House had said, but it was the Prime Minister’s view that the matter was for the BBC governors. Asked if the Prime Minister would be raising the Madelaine McCann case with the Portuguese Prime Minister, the PMS replied that it was a matter for the police and the relevant authorities. Asked if the Prime Minister had seen the football the night before, the PMS replied that the television was on in the background so it was likely that the Prime Minister had seen parts of both games. In response to the question of who would be hosting the Prime Minister at the Rugby World Cup final on Saturday, the PMS said that the Prime Minister would be there as the guest of President Sarkozy. Asked if President Mbeki and Nelson Mandela would be going to the Rugby on Saturday, the PMS said that he did not know.
