Potential problem with Tutankhamun London visit

An article about the troubled UK deputy prime minisiter, John Prescott, which mentions in passing a possible threat to the London visit in 2007 of the Tutankhamun exhibition, which is supposed to be hosted at the Greenwich Dome: "Prescott is under pressure over his links to Philip Anschutz, the US tycoon with business interests in London who entertained the deputy prime minister at his Colorado ranch. An Anschutz company that owns a stake in the Millennium Dome is threatening to shelve £300m of proposed investment and cancel a Tutankhamun exhibition unless it is granted a licence for a supercasino."
