As he's back in the headlines I recall a story about the 27 year old J R-M when he was fighting the 1997 election that Blair won. The Cons had sent him, as their candidate, to the constituency of Leven,Fife..a Labour stronghold.
He took his nanny with him..the one he still has today and it was reported that he drove round in a Bently. He refuted this with the answer. "No, it wasn't a Bently, it was my mother's Mercedes'. He owns two classic Bentlys.
Two slightly different accounts but the Mirror one..the seconds one has the quote I recalled (as the headline) so worth reproducing.

This is a great read. Some wonderful photos too.I see his wife is worth £45 million. He is said to be worth 'well over' £100 million.

Re Brexit ...He's moved the company he's a partner in.. SCM (Somerset Capital Management) to....er..Dublin..lol. Rather embarrasing I'd say.
