Berlusconi's Consigliere
David Mills lunched Don Berlusconi at the Garrick some years ago. Anyone who has had lunch at the Garrick will understand now why Berlusconi agrees with Chirac on English food. Isn't it fascinating that Tessa Jowell's husband advises foreign tycoons how to dodge taxes and gets $600,000 bunged into a hedge fund as a thank you. Now he is under investigation by the Italian police, and the Captions in the comments please...
UPDATE: According to the Guardian Diary, Mills actually met Don Bernasconi, an under-boss in the Don Berlusconi mob, rather than the godfather himself.

Just smile and look honest darling, it's worked for Silvio for the last ten years
It wasn't even half a 'Bernie' in sterling.What is the fuss about?
David, you don't have to keep pulling on my scarf. I *promise* Tony will see you right again.
Whenever I invite people to dine with me at the Garrick I take them to the eponymous pizzeria across the street. It never fails to amuse.
Which female labour MP bought £500,000 house in Southwold a while back?
There's a really dodgy pub in Stockton-on-Tees called The Garrick as well.
£600,000 - Darling, you are clever: that's enough to buy one of Cherie's Bristol flats and still have enough left over to buy 6 peerages
Quit the damn job darling, we can live in Zurich and visit our money every day.
Il Capo di capo e la crapo di crapo.
You are Andrea and I claim my £5.
