David Cameron's Twitter account followed 'high-class escorts'
Prime Minister David Cameron appeared to accidentally follow a high-class escort agency on Twitter.
Number 10 told the BBC the account had been followed due to an automated system they had in place in 2009. It said it was in the process of unfollowing "inappropriate" accounts.
Carltons of London's website said it offered the "finest London escorts to gentlemen of distinction".
Downing Street said "following" did not imply the PM's endorsement.
It is the latest embarrassing social media incident that has involved Mr Cameron in recent weeks.
Last month an offensive tweet about foreign secretary William Hague was accidentally "favourited".
That instance was blamed on a mistake made by one of Mr Cameron's aides responsible for helping to run the account.
In relation to the escort agency, Number 10 told the BBC the following was unintentional.
