Briefing by the Prime Minister’s spokesman on: President Sarkozy visit and Match of the Day
President Sarkozy visit
Asked what would be on the menu when the Prime Minister had lunch with President Sarkozy, the Prime Minister’s Spokesman (PMS) said we didn’t publish the menu as a matter of course, but if we could offer some guidance we would do.
Asked whether Greece would be on the agenda in the meeting, the PMS replied it wasn’t currently on the agenda. There were discussions going on amongst the Eurozone participants, but we had made our position clear.
Match of the Day
Asked for more details on the proposed bid for the Prime Minister to appear on Match of the Day 2, the PMS replied that he had seen the reports. The PMS said that if the Prime Minister was not appearing, it could be due to the fact that certain programmes would not accept one political leader and would only accept all of them the closer it got to an election.
Asked how the idea came about, the PMS said that the Prime Minister was a football fan but he was not aware of it being discussed recently. Asked if he watched Match of the Day 2, the PMS said the Prime Minister did watch football.
