Go into any bookshop, and you will find a massive assortment of books written by criminals (well ghosted on behalf of them) there are so many!
'nosher bates-hard man', the kray,s knitting patterns,' big john-the bruiser'
'iron face mick'.....etc, etc.......should these people be allowed to profit from thier crimes.

right, i,m off to read Charles Bronson (make up tips)

Well, it must have come out recently, there must be 20 different 'kray' books in waterstones, not to mention the hundreds of other gangster type life stories......

the kray twins only hurt or murdered people that either crossed them or were a threat to them ,i recall they were very famous in the 50s/60s had lots of friends from the film and tv industry.

Violent thug.
They weren't Cola Cubes, they were actually industrial sized tampons.
You swallowed them. When you're throat exploded it kinda gave it away. Butt knocker.
