irnbruman Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 I don't know how to do the link but some kid in Salford is due to be suspended for making 14K selling chocolate and sweets at school despite the school banning them in favour of a healthy eating policy. All over the news members of the public seem to be praising his entrepreneurial spirit and saying he shouldn't be suspended. Well Id expel the little twat. Just cos he breaks the rules and other kids adhere to them this ##### is meant to be representative of the way "we should be" . Absolute bollo cks - Id make him pay the money back and send him to a young offenders institution - just stopping short of cutting his knackers off. Dunno how he managed to smuggle the sweets and chocolate past his old man - huge fat bas tard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redstevie007 Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 FFS. The boy's made quite a bit, which he's putting in a trust fund to pay himself through university as his parents can't afford it. He's not sitting on his erse with his playstation or glued to ####in candy crush on his phone. He's not even hanging about the streets and stabbing people every night. What's the world coming to when a teenager shows a bit of ingenuity, eh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phart Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 It doesn't take business acumen to "breach sanctions" and sell illicit goods, he's already had to move school once cause of it. You need more than 9 grand to get into Oxford you need grades which he doesn't have. Weird how money has supplanted god as the arbiter of modern morals.

I also wonder how Tommie is able to get his goods, he does seem suited to the business world here he is 3 years ago giving assurances after he got suspended the first time he would give the money to charity http://www.itv.com/news/granada/update/2014-11-21/del-boy-in-2011-im-going-to-nip-my-business-in-the-bud/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Showed initiative if you ask me, you never know he might've limited the fat kids to just the one kit-kat. I can't recall any confusion between sweets and drugs in this thread so the clarification has no purpose. Dipping someones pocket after they have been run over by a car is also showing initiative. Showing initiative is not always a positive attribute. That's if you're daft enough to take this story at face-value anyway. After spending a wee while researching the story I suspect there has been some liberties taken with the truth. However it's not really a big deal and I can see where you're coming from with your interpretation, i'm just griping as i'm stuck waiting on something coming and stuck reading shyte on the TAMB.
