IT syndicate wins €45m share

A GROUP of IT workers from Liverpool yesterday discovered they had won a £45.5 million (€50m) share of the Euromillions jackpot.

The syndicate of seven or eight were unaware they had won when they went work at BT’s Royal House centre yesterday.

They held one of two tickets that scooped a share of Friday night’s £91m jackpot.

A company source said: “They are employed by Hewlett Packard or by Manpower to do internal IT work, computer support.

“Someone from Camelot turned up and whisked them away.”
