Fury over steel tycoon’s €50m bash for daughter

HE didn’t give his workers a cent in redundancy payments and the Irish taxpayer will have to foot a €30 million bill to clean up his steel mill.

Yet tycoon Lakshmi Mittal was able to splash out more than €50 million on his daughter's wedding.

The castle of Vaux le Vicomte in Paris witnessed the most extravagant wedding ever held in Europe. Over five days last week, Mr Mittal wined and dined more than 1,600 guests, taking over two sumptuous mansions once owned by the French monarchy for the celebrations. To hire the buildings alone cost him €600,000.
