Eton
Old EtonianCharles SpencerI was at this reunion. There was no booing of the headmaster. A shame that @standardnews ran this baseless article, presumably because @Eton_College serves as clickbait. And equally sad that the freelance journalist Old Etonian at the event sold out the truth for a fee. https://t.co/4dW1YH8p4Y
