Downing Street admits mistake over photographer

Joe Murphy at the Evening Standard has a great scoop that Downing Street has made a u-turn and removed photographer Andrew Parsons and videographer Nicky Woodhouse from the public payroll.

This is the right decision and I'm glad that the Prime Minister is willing to admit a mistake was made. Following on from my previous post, and the FT's story of the Downing Street strategy unit closing, does this allow a bit of wriggle room in recruiting another individual to the team who is perhaps more substance than style?
