And these are the people who aim to go on the greater things, taking the top jobs in the professions, commerce, industry and government.
Financially, of course, Scottish students are much better placed to be able to afford such stupidity than their English counterparts. I really couldn�t care less what they do to themselves. If, by the age of eighteen or more, they have not yet learned that it is inadvisable to pour toxic liquid into your eyes, then I doubt anyone will be able to teach them and they will have to learn the hard way.
What I object to is having to pay (via my English taxes neatly diverted to Scotland) to subsidise such stupidity. Mind you, as far as I know, it does not say on the labels of vodka bottles that you should not pour the stuff into your eyes, so stand by for the first case of alleged negligence brought by one of the poor souls against Smirnoff for not telling them where to stick the stuff!
