President Obama is traveling abroad with an entourage of no less than 500 people, not to mention a fleet of decoy helicopters and a limousine called “The Beast.” When the President goes abroad, the White House goes with him, including a team from the kitchen to prepare his food — even in London. Paul Harris is US correspondent for The Observer and author of a novel, out this week, The Secret Keeper.
