I was very privileged. An awful lot of the students used go to America, and they lived on tips. In France, if one neglects to give a tip, one will find a waiter or waitress coming after you saying, "Service, service, service." They will not let one away with it. One is compelled to give a tip.
I will tell the Minister something, and it might be a practical suggestion to my colleagues in the House. I always give the tip in cash right into the hand of the person who has looked after me, and to hell with the Revenue.
