Watford Residents Need Passports to Access Own Homes

You'd think the millionaire and billionnaire bankers and plutocrats of this group could afford to hire a remote hotel in the Swiss Alps or a castle in Scotland, wouldn't you?

There's a certain amount of black humour in this story in a similar vein. Perhaps they will also fly in some celebrities with expensive cars to complete the illusion of prosperity.

Anyone remember that story about when Prince Philip visited a rundown area of Liverpool - iirc it was in the 1970s - and the council spent ratepayers' money on doing up derelict frontages of just the part of the street he was visiting?
