United Kingdom, honors and citizenship in exchange for money: Prince Charles’ chief valet resigns

LONDON – He was the chief valet of Prince Charles, the one who, according to rumors, even smeared toothpaste on his toothbrush: “I can do without anyone”, said the heir to the throne, “except him”. Now he will have to do without it, at least for a while: Michael Fawcett has resigned as president of the Prince Foundation, the charitable foundation of His Majesty’s eldest son, on charges of helping a wealthy Saudi donor get an honor royal and British citizenship.
