"'Fake shops' open up ahead of the G8 summit"
Everyone wants to look good. In these cases, taxpayer money is being used to misrepresent.
That's a form of lying, isn't it?...
In the U.K. Telegraph, Jasper Topping recently reported on this story:
"The large stickers have been fixed to closed down stores near to the Lough Erne resort, in County Fermanagh, Northern Ireland, which will host next month’s meeting of the leaders of eight of the world’s richest countries, among them Barack Obama, Angela Merkel and François Hollande. The site was selected by David Cameron – as Britain is the current chairman of the G8 – and he said it would be a 'brilliant advertisement' for Northern Ireland. But businesses in the area have suffered in recent years, leaving many vacant sites which are now being disguised by the local council."
