  • When Spicer got fired, he was forced to send his kids to earn money...

    Ok, that's another Spicer. And he wasn't fired as far as we know. But the rest of the story is true! Well, kinda....


    A five-year-old girl was fined £150 by a council for selling 50p cups of lemonade to festival goers.

    The girl's father Andre Spicer said his daughter had set up the stall in Mile End, east London, while thousands of music fans were on their way to the Lovebox Festival at the weekend.

    Mr Spicer said his daughter burst into tears and told him "I've done a bad thing."

    Tower Hamlets Council has since cancelled the fine and apologised.

    A council spokesman said: "We are very sorry that this has happened. We expect our enforcement officers to show common sense and to use their powers sensibly.
    Not a very realistic expectation, I guess

          Just read the real Spicer resigned. Dunno why, but probably over this fauxpas of his transatlantic namesake

            This is so stupid someone needs to be fired.

              Be careful. Your focus on firing is starting to make you sound like Trump.
              “It is no use trying to 'see through' first principles. If you see through everything, then everything is transparent. But a wholly transparent world is an invisible world. To 'see through' all things is the same as not to see.”
