CoP apologises to PM over Bayside pool party spat
"Even though what I said was accurate, it was no way appropriate for me to make such comment which could allude to the comments made to the PM. Since then I have written to the PM officially and I have apologised and wish to take (this moment) and let the public know that I do apologise for the comments that I would have made," Griffith said. Something people forget is that GG is human and he can make mistakes. But it means that every single day I am being monitored and scrutinised and at times someone can be frustrated and tired. Because of my strong degree of passion to help, it puts me in situations to get me in trouble."
