That Idiot, Cliff Barnes' Sir Mark's Swiss Retreat
2005-02-17
Sir Mark Thatcher may set up a new life in Switzerland if he fails to obtain a US visa because of his involvement in a coup plot in Africa. The disgraced son of former prime minister Margaret Thatcher could be joined in his dreams in Switzerland by his wife Diana, who is at her home in the US. Sir Mark has applied to enter the US but officials will closely look at the evidence against him before any decision is made. When If it goes against him Sir Mark is looking at alternatives. Sir Mark is living with his mother in Britain while he waits to hear the outcome of his visa application to the US. He also faces investigations by Scotland Yard into his role in the plot. But he is due back in South Africa to answer questions from Equatorial Guinea's prosecutors before they decide whether to ask for his extradition. Sir Mark lived in Switzerland in the 1990s and has friends and business contacts in the country.
He always said it was a nice place to visit but he wouldn't want to...oopsie!
That's a bad wedding photo. It's even a bad passport photo.

#1  I don't know who's ghosting Mark "Thickie Mork" Thatcher's biography, but if they've got a sense of humour it's going to be a best-seller.
