MPs want Charles’ aide investigated

MICHAEL Fawcett is the “indispensable” aide claimed to have been selling unwanted royal gifts on behalf of the Prince of Wales – and taking a cut.

MPs have been calling all week for an investigation into the activities of the Prince’s personal assistant.

He is said to have been responsible for disposing of Charles’s unwanted gifts, and is allegedly allowed to keep up to 20% of the profits, earning himself the sobriquet ‘Fawcett the Fence’.
