David Cameron has denied that he is searching for a new employer after joining professional networking site LinkedIn.

The decision to join the site was taken so the prime minister could "connect with business people", a spokesperson said.

His profile was blocked to receiving introductions although it does list his address as "the prime minister's Office, London, UK" and his occupation as "government administration".
