AN estate agent has been sacked after his boss saw a video of him grabbing
Prof Chris Whitty around the neck.


The boxing enthusiast Hughes apologised through The Sun and said: “I’ve paid
the price with my job.”

He told how the friends had been on an anti-vax march in London on Sunday
when they spotted Prof Whitty, 55, at about 3pm in St James’s Park.

Hughes, who worked for Caplen Estates Agents, admitted having a couple of
drinks first.

He said: “I absolutely apologise for any upset I caused.


“If I made him feel uncomfortable, which it does look like I did, then I am
sorry to him for that.

“He is quite a timid, shy person and I think that is why he didn’t say, ‘Get off
me’. If he had said that and I had realised how he felt, I wouldn’t have put
my arm round him.

“I feel very let down by Boris, for him to call me a thug. I actually voted for
him as well.
