Jumpin' Jack backs out in a Flash
Comments |
Kent-born Sir Mick Jagger has backed out of representing Britain
at a tea party after complaining of being used as a "political
football".
The Rolling Stones star, who was brought up in Dartford and went
to Dartford Grammar School, had been due to help sell the nation at
an international summit.
It was announced yesterday the raunchy rocker, who has fathered
seven children by four women, was among high-profile names signed
up to promote the UK at the tea party in Davos, Switzerland.
But in a statement last night, Sir Mick said he has "always
avoided party politics" and declined the invitation.
The tea party is being hosted by Prime Minister David Cameron as
he tries to plug Britain to other government and business
leaders.
