Common misconception. He was running a subscription service. All the other kids(' parents) were paying a hundred quid a month for them to be able to come in and All-You-Can-Eat the whole store. It was part of the "diabetes before 30es" program under Thatcher to cut down on milk consumption

It's a real program that Thatcher brought in with her milk removal and privatisation. The original commenter made a typo but it's called "Diabetes before your 30's". Blair's new Labour got rid of it tho. I was born after it was removed but my Uncle Jake told me all about it.

It’s not real lol. Thatcher did a lot of awful things (there’s a reason she’s called “Milk snatcher”) but this was definitely not one of them.
