Unsurprisingly, this piece of poo poo isn't just in the business of scamming parents. He's also opening and shutting charity organizations left and right to try and hoover up public funds, while claiming to provide aid and service that he doesn't deliver on. The article mentions one of his organizations providing advice about applying for benefits which then turns out to be wrong.

Scam charity money meant for poor people and you can get away with it for years.

Scam middle class parents out of £35 and you go to jail instantly.

Fyre Festival is still my favorite disastrous event, but second place is pretty close now between DashCon and Willy's Chocolate Experience. Just amazing, amazing trainwrecks.

DashCon 2014
- Disorganized, mismanaged disaster
- Short-term cancellations of performances and panels people had paid money for
- People singing "We are the Champions" while they are being scammed
- "An extra hour in the ball pit" as compensation
- Attendees and staff taking the piss afterwards
- Organizers crying while apologizing on camera

Willy's Chocolate Experience 2024
- Disorganized, mismanaged disaster
- Abandoned warehouse with cheap props and costumes ordered from online stores
- AI-generated website and event script that was quickly abandoned
- Meth Lab Oompa Loompa
- The Unknown scaring children so badly they start to cry
- Attendees and staff taking the piss afterwards
- Organizer crying while apologizing on camera

The recent Bored Apes NFT convention where the attendees got eye damage from unshielded UV sterilization lamps has far exceeded any possible contender.

The best part of the AI script, and a bunch of other AI "creative" bullshit, is where I can't tell if it's regurgitating the scripts for children's TV shows, or internet posters writing poo poo that parodies children's TV shows.

Yeah, I feel like ironically recreating the Willy Wonka Experience loses the lovely charm the original Glasgow one had.

some LA 20-something young actors hamming it up for an audience of childless ironic internet dorks

it's gonna be even worse than the original
