INTERNAL DISAGREEMENTS

INTERNAL DISAGREEMENTS

Today's Evan Davis and BBC political correspondent Louise Stewart had a lot of fun at the expense of David Cameron and Nick Clegg this morning over their disagreement over internships. They returned to the subjectlater, after which Evan talked to Gus Baker. The Today website describes Gus as "a student and co-founder of pressure group Intern Aware." Evan Davis described him in similar terms on the programme. Mr Baker criticized the prime minister. His Twitter account tells us a bit more: Gus Baker @gusbbaker Bristol President-elect of Uni Bristol Students Union. Proud and independent minded Labour Party activist and NPF member. Co-founder @internaware. Is it unreasonable to think that Mr Baker's Labour affiliations should have been mentioned? The same question applies to BBC Online's write-up of the same interview (Cameron and Clegg differ publicly on internship places) which merely describes him as "from the pressure group Intern Aware" (and generously links to his website). The Today programme interviewed no-one other than Gus Baker on the subject.
