    I`ve been reading today of a 15 year old boy, who often missed school lessons as he was out working, and earning alot more than what his teacher`s were. "We were all doing it" he said, "as there was no incentive to stay at school, and we were already making more money than our teachers ever would". His work? Selling crack cocaine in south London. All okay till he was beaten up and stabbed by another gang member, and found himself trapped in a cycle of crime. A housing estate resident started up a social enterprise called Mustard, which is currently proving a great success. Briefly, these youngsters have the chance to start afresh and break away from the gang mentality, by working alongside tradesmen for £6.50 an hour. Is this, or have we had this same problem in our town? And is it, or can it happen here today? askmustard.com
