00:00So the Prime Minister reached a judgment in the round that with a very unconventional president there was a need
00:05for an unconventional ambassador and that given all of Peter Mandels' experience in trade policy he could do a job
00:11for the United Kingdom.
00:12The Prime Minister has now accepted that was the wrong appointment and indeed that he made a mistake and has
00:17apologised as such.
00:18What's an issue today is did the Prime Minister tell the truth and did the Prime Minister willingly and knowingly
00:24mislead Parliament, an allegation made by the Leader of the Opposition that he will firmly refute today.
