During an election profile article on the Winchester UKIP candidate Martin Lyon in the Chronicle last week there was a typographical error in the words “county councillor” producing what looked like a crude remark.
The error attracted some vulgar attention on social media.
We apologise to Mr Lyon for the error and any embarrassment caused.
