First came the chicken, then the egg

TORY leader David Cameron laughed off being hit by an egg while out electioneering yesterday, dismissing it as the “first of the campaign”.

Mr Cameron was struck on the shoulder as he emerged from answering students’ questions during a visit to a college in Cornwall.

Having been confronted with a giant chicken on Tuesday (sent by the Mirror newspaper), Mr Cameron joked: “Now I know which came first – the chicken not the egg.”
