Pity poor Ithaki, which has been politely hosting rogue capitalist soon-not-to-be-Sir Philip Green and his third superyacht, the 90-metre Lionheart. An unusually combative Sky News journalist tracked him down to what we believe is the chi-chi port of Kioni, where the soon-not-to-be-Sir Philip took umbrage at being asked why he was flitting around the Ionian on hols when he was meant to be sorting out the £571million hole in the pension scheme at the failed BHS empire – an empire that the soon-not-to-be-Sir Philip relieved of £400million before he sold it off for £1 to another dodgy wideboy. The funniest part of the video, after Phil threatens to push the cameraman into the sea, is the crewman handing him a bottle of water and scarpering out of the way of the camera.
Eleven thousand sacked BHS workers probably won’t be able to afford a holiday on Ithaki this summer. Some might, however, want to apply for any vacancies in the 40-strong crew the Lionheart employs, including the full-time dog walker.
We had him hanging around Koukounaries for a week but now he has gone thank goodness. Coincidentally, the Sewage Works hereabouts is is now blocked so we are now having to deal with the mess he has left in his Wake.
Amusing that Phil threatens to ‘call the police’ on the camera crew, when I doubt that the fat spiv knows a word of Greek to actually telephone the astynomia, but his attack on the cameraman is an act of criminal assault, which should be actionable. But I guess he and his third superyacht are some way from Kioni by now, maybe having fun with likeminded souls in Laganas on Zakynthos…
All the money in the world, all the fleeting pleasures money can buy but unfortunately for him, it cannot buy him peace. A troubled sole indeed…
But it’s not Kioni, where they met him. Any other suggestions?
Well, it doesn’t look like the capital, Vathy, so the only other harbour he could have been in would be Frikes, and it doesn’t look like that. Hence the suggestion it may have been Kioni.
Well, but for the purposes of correct reporting according to highest jornalistic ethic and standards as we are used to on skopelos-news I’m afraid to insist on my doubts. In Kioni there is only space for 15 yachts in front of 5 houses, and in the video we see a lot more boats and houses. Furthermore Kioni has no gasstation nearby the water.
What a complete arsehole !! Let’s hope he never visits Skopelos !!!!!!!!!
Too late – have been there already.
Calm down, cathy, take a dictionary and search for “irony”. Sometimes people are not able to recognize it, because it is used without beeing announced by those funny 🙂 😉 😉
And please talk to the painter with that strange car. He seems to have the same problem 😉 😉 😉
