Burger King boss describes English women as 'not very attractive'
Burger King chief executive Bernardo Hees will be causing his UK PR consultants a headache this morning having described English woman as being ugly and slating UK food.
The fast-food company boss was addressing students in Chicago, and was discussing his time studying at the University of Warwick when he claimed: "The food is terrible and the women are not very attractive."
Burger King has since moved to distance itself from the comments, with a spokesperson responding with the statement:
"Mr Hees apologises if his comment has offended anyone. It was intended as a humorous anecdote to connect with his audience."
Hees has been in the role for around six months.
