I’m so fed up with this subject. Why another thread about it? The man’s entitled to a holiday with his family. There will always be one crisis or another and he can, and does, work whilst away. We have technology to enable that which is far more advanced than in, say, Blair’s day. If the loan of the villa has to be declared it will be. Is there anything else I haven’t mentioned? Oh of course, Goldsmith shouldn’t have all that money which buys such a wonderful villa and get such a good income from it and should never lend it to a mate, that has to be fishy. The rates he charges for a week would equal a deposit on a house. We should live in a communist state. Anything else? I do wish certain posters would ‘put a sock in it’. So boring.
