An article in The Mirror (a bastion of honest British journalism and good taste) informs us that Prince William and Kate (a bit too familiar this 'Kate' naming in my opinion) had a few nights in a palatial hotel in France, where suites come in a £3500 or so per night. There's an accompanying picture of the said hotel, but I can't help but think it looks like the Grand Hotel at Scarborough. You can stay at The Grand for as little as £18 per night (if t'internet is to be believed) but I guess suites are a bit more than that.
I read that Byron sell upmarket burgers, mainly in London, which is probably why I had never heard of them until they hit the news when some of their employees were nabbed by immigration and deported. On the face of it, it seems that this was a simple illegal immigration case, but it transpires that Byron's colluded with immigration to fabricate an early morning meeting where the offenders were rounded up and dealt with. For me, that shows that Byron's is a responsible community minded company, to others, they are a capitalist uncaring employer in cahoots with the fascist immigration thugs. To make Byron's aware of the depth of feeling, some have demonstrated outside stores, and in some cases have release cockroaches (I think) into the shop. Don't they know cockroaches have feelings too?
