He is notoriously hard to pin down, but I gather he's living in that hotel he owns in Hove. I say own, it's probably in the name of one of his companies or offspring.
Its one of my legal claims to fame, his henchmen threatened to remove my kneecaps ( in a call to the firms reception) after I pulled a deal as I rumbled it was a NVH front company selling the lease to my client, and I really didnt want my clients having him as a LL.

Nonsense. Wokeness is the authoritarian pseudo-progressive usurpation of social liberalism, and is an unequivocally bad thing.

pebble beach. I like sandy beaches. It's ok if you're going for a walk on the south downs.

Yes, Brighton is great, Go round The Pavilion, it explains the ethos of the place and can set the vibe for the rest of the trip.
Oscar Wilde said that Brighton is like a town that is helping the police with their enquires.

I don't like it. I find it a very "ooh look how different, woke, alternative I am" place and it is run down and quite dirty.

Do you like pansexuality and polyamory? If so, Brighton is up your street. If you're a Tory though you're probably not welcome.

Still a bit close to Maidstone for comfort.
Also a higher than normal level of poo particles.

The Lanes are good if you're after some bargain knock-off antiques.

Re aquarium prob best to get a Merlin pass if there's even a remote chance you would go to any of their other attractions.
I would say Brighton is not "all that". It's effectively Islington by the sea.
