David Yelland was a vice-chairman at Weber Shandwick, where Mandelson protege Colin Byrne is CEO. Interesting to put a former Sun editor up against Andy Coulson, ex-editor of the News of the Screws…

UPDATE : No confirmation of this yet. Have not seen a retraction either.

UPDATE II 17.20 : Yelland is at Brunswick (former home of Stephen Carter).

UPDATE III : Friend of Yelland tells Guido – “Nah, embarrassingly for Adam, all bollocks. He was in yesterday telling them to calm down about The Sun showing support for Cam.”
